Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of coupling technology, and in particular to a toothed expansion type flexible coupling. Background Technology

[0002] Flexible couplings, as a long-established and widely used mechanical product, play a stable transmission role in various mechanical equipment. However, with the continuous development of industrial technology and the increasing complexity of application scenarios, existing flexible couplings have gradually exposed a series of problems, making it difficult to meet actual production needs: First, the existing flexible couplings have a relatively simple structure. When the elastic component is damaged or aged and needs to be replaced, due to the limitations of its structural design, it is necessary to move the motor reducer and re-align the equipment's transmission shaft. This process is not only cumbersome and consumes a lot of manpower, material resources, and time, but also requires a high level of professional skills from the operators. If the alignment is inaccurate, it will seriously affect the transmission efficiency and stability of the equipment, increasing the risk of equipment failure. Second, in situations where power equipment needs to be switched, existing flexible couplings cannot directly meet the requirements, often necessitating the addition of a clutch. This not only increases the cost and complexity of the equipment but also occupies more installation space, making the overall layout of the equipment more compact and hindering equipment maintenance and management.

[0044] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In use, the power source drives the drive shaft 1 to rotate. The drive shaft 1 drives the tooth sleeve 2 to rotate through the drive key 11. The rotation of the tooth sleeve 2 can drive the drive component 3 to rotate. The drive component 3 drives the passive component 4 to rotate. The passive component 4 drives the passive shaft 5 to rotate through the passive key 51, thereby realizing the transmission of power from the drive shaft 1 to the passive shaft 5. The passive shaft 5 then transmits the power to external equipment. When the flexible coupling needs maintenance, first unscrew the positioning screw 8, then remove the fastener 7. At this time, the toothed sleeve 2 is separated from the driving component 3, which facilitates the inspection, repair or replacement of internal components. After maintenance, reinstall the first tooth 22 of the toothed sleeve 2 into the T-slot 32 of the driving component 3, align the first threaded hole 33 and the second threaded hole 220, and install the fastener 7 to tighten it. Then align the positioning hole 35 with the separation hole 211 or the transmission hole 212, and install the positioning screw 8 to complete the reset work after maintenance. Through the positioning screw 8 and the structure of the first tooth 22, the second tooth 34 and the third tooth 42, the coupling does not need to undergo complicated transmission shaft alignment work again, and the transmission accuracy of the coupling can be guaranteed. When it is necessary to replace the elastic element 6, first remove the fastener 7, then use a special flat chisel to insert into the gap between the inner wall of the second groove of the driving element 3 and the first tooth 22 of the toothed sleeve 2, and loosen the toothed sleeve by hammering. Then move the driving element 3 away from the driven element 4 until the second tooth 34 of the driving element 3 separates from the mounting hole 61 on the elastic element 6. Then install the positioning screw 8 into the separation hole 211 of the toothed sleeve 2 and the positioning hole 35 of the driving element 4. At this time, the driving element 3 and the driven element 4 are separated, and the original elastic element 6 can be removed and replaced with a new elastic element 6. When it is necessary to realize the clutch function, for example, to stop the driving shaft 1 without affecting the operation of the driven shaft 5, the same operation steps as when replacing the elastic element 6 can be followed. Move the driving element 3 to the separation position, and then install the positioning screw 8 into the separation hole 211 of the toothed sleeve 2 and the positioning hole 35 of the driving element 4 to realize the power separation between the driving shaft 1 and the driven shaft 5.
