Coupling for use in e.g. async. machine - has tapered rollers rotating in gap between conical discs, and friction drum located on input shaft

摘要

The coupling has radial spokes (9) and tapered rollers (11) acting as centrifugal force coupling members. A friction drum (6,6a) is located on the input shaft (1) with bearings (2,3) at the left. At the right is located a friction flange shaft (7) acting as output shaft and with its own bearings (4,5). The rollers rotate in the circular tapered gap between the two conical discs. The free disc (6) and the load disc (7) are coupled to the spokes, the rollers and the input shaft.
