The left end of the steel ball 5 is located in the second steel ball placement groove 20. A displacement flange 6 is sleeved on the rotating inner body 1 on the right side of the connecting flange 4. The inner side of the displacement flange 6 is provided with a third steel ball placement groove 22 that cooperates with the outer end of the steel ball 5. A butterfly spring placement groove 21 is provided on the right end face of the displacement flange 6. A butterfly spring 7 is provided in the butterfly spring placement groove 21. A positioning plate 8 is provided on the right side of the displacement flange 6. A first keyway 16 is provided on the outer wall of the right end of the rotating inner body 1. A connecting key 14 that cooperates with the first keyway 16 is provided on the positioning plate 8. The positioning plate 8 has a torque value scale 9 on its right side, and a first bolt mounting hole on the torque value scale 9. The positioning plate 8 has a plurality of evenly distributed second bolt mounting holes 13. An adjusting bolt 10 is provided in each of the first bolt mounting holes, and the left end of the adjusting bolt 10 is connected to one of the second bolt mounting holes 13. The rotating inner body 1 has an inner hole 11 that extends through the rotating inner body from left to right, and a second keyway 12 is provided in the inner hole 11. The left end face of the first connecting ring 27 has a plurality of circumferentially arranged first claws 25. A second connecting ring 24 is provided on the left side of the first connecting ring 27, and the right end face of the second connecting ring 24 has a plurality of claws that interact with the first claws 25. The second claw 28 is matched with the first connecting ring 27 and the second connecting ring 24. A plum blossom-shaped elastic body 26 is provided between the first connecting ring 27 and the second connecting ring 24. The plum blossom-shaped elastic body 26 includes a circular body and a plurality of protrusions evenly distributed around the circular body. The protrusions are distributed between the first claw 25 and the second claw 28. A third keyway 29 is provided on the inner wall of the second connecting ring 24. A plurality of first connecting bolt holes 33 are evenly provided on the left end face of the first connecting ring 27. A plurality of second connecting bolt holes 32 corresponding to the first connecting bolt holes 33 are provided on the left end face of the connecting flange 4. A connecting bolt 31 connected to the second connecting bolt hole is provided on the first connecting bolt hole 33.
[0035] This technical solution uses a torque value dial 9 to display the torque value. The torque value setting is standardized and has clear criteria. The torque value dial 9 is scientifically set, and the torque value is specific and does not require conversion. This allows for accurate acquisition of the torque value, improving the performance of the coupling.
[0036] The circular main body and multiple protrusions are integrally molded. The plum blossom-shaped elastomer 26 is made of high-strength polyurethane. The high-strength polyurethane plum blossom-shaped elastomer 26 offers wear and oil resistance, high load-bearing capacity, long service life, and reliable safety. During use, the coupling operates stably and reliably, exhibiting excellent vibration damping, buffering, and electrical insulation properties. It also possesses significant axial, radial, and angular compensation capabilities.
[0037] Bearing 3 is a rolling bearing. The third steel ball placement groove 22 is an annular groove that mates with the steel ball 5. During operation, the first steel ball placement groove 18, the second steel ball placement groove 20, and the third steel ball placement groove 22 together form a receiving cavity to accommodate the steel ball 5.
[0038] During operation: When the transmitted torque exceeds the set slippage torque (overload), steel ball 5 will leave the second steel ball placement groove 20, causing slippage between the connecting flange 4 and the shifting flange 6. At this time, the transmitted torque is reduced to a very small value. Simultaneously, steel ball 5 pushes the shifting flange 6 to move axially to the right, triggering a sensor or displacement switch, causing the sensor to output a signal. This signal can then be used to control the operation or cut off the power source, stopping the equipment from rotating and protecting it. After the overload is eliminated, steel ball 5 automatically resets under the action of the disc spring 7, connecting flange 4, and shifting flange 6, thus resuming normal rotation.
[0039] For example, in some embodiments, an elastic retaining ring 2 is provided on the outer wall of the left end of the rotating inner body 1. The elastic retaining ring 2 allows for quick assembly and disassembly of components, facilitating replacement and maintenance.
[0040] For example, in some embodiments, an elastic retaining ring mounting groove 15 is provided on the outer wall of the left end of the rotating inner body 1, and the elastic retaining ring 2 is mounted on the elastic retaining ring mounting groove 15. This makes the connection of the elastic retaining ring 2 more stable. During installation, the positioning plate 8, the butterfly spring 7, the displacement flange 6, the steel ball 5, the connecting flange 4, and the bearing 3 can be sleeved onto the rotating inner body 1 from the left end, and then limited and fixed by the elastic retaining ring 2. This operation is convenient for installation and maintenance.
[0041] For example, in some embodiments, the outer wall of the second connecting ring 24 is provided with a first fastening bolt hole that extends through to the third keyway 29, and a first fastening bolt 23 is provided in the first fastening bolt hole. This can fix the connection between the second connecting ring 24 and the corresponding shaft.
[0042] For example, in some embodiments, a second fastening bolt hole is provided on the outer wall of the second connecting ring 24 on the side of the first fastening bolt hole, extending to the inner wall of the second connecting ring 24, and a second fastening bolt 30 is provided in the second fastening bolt hole. This makes the connection between the second connecting ring 24 and the corresponding shaft more secure, ensuring the stability of the transmission.
[0043] For example, in some embodiments, the first keyway 16 consists of two corresponding ends located on the outer wall of the rotating inner body 1, and the connecting key 14 consists of two keys that mate with the two first keyways 16. This makes the connection between the rotating inner body 1 and the torque value dial 9 more stable.
[0044] For example, in some embodiments, the outer end of the left end face of the positioning plate 8 is a rightward inclined slope. This allows for a gap between the second bolt mounting hole 13 and the displacement flange 6, facilitating observation of the tightening of the adjusting bolt 10 and preventing the adjusting bolt 10 from directly contacting the displacement flange 6 and causing any impact.
[0045] For example, in some embodiments, there are twenty-four second bolt mounting holes 13. This facilitates adjustment of the scale position on the torque value dial 9.
[0046] For example, in some embodiments, the steel ball mounting ring 17 is integrally formed with the rotating inner body 1. This makes the overall structure more stable.
[0047] In summary, this utility model uses a torque value dial to display the torque value. The torque value is set in a standardized and clearly defined manner. The torque value dial is scientifically designed, and the torque value is specific and does not require conversion. This allows for accurate acquisition of the torque value, thereby improving the performance of the coupling.
[0048] The embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but this utility model is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model, and these variations still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
