ain Coupling
Features
1. Simple structur
e
A roller chain coupling consists
of one duplex roller chain and
two sprockets for a simplex
chain. Handling is very simple
as both the shafts (driving
shaft and driven shaft) can be
connected and disconnected
by inserting or removing
connecting pins (cotter type).
2. Easy alignment
Owing to the play between the respective components
of the chain and the play between the roller chain and
the sprockets, the eccentricity and angle error can be
generally allowed as follows:
3. Small but powerful
Since a powerful roller chain is engaged with the
sprockets at all the teeth, a large torque can be
transmitted, though the coupling itself is smaller than
other kinds of couplings.
4. Excellent durability
The roller chain is made of heat-treated steel and
manufactured precisely and solidly to the highest
manufacturing standard. The durability is outstanding
and little time is required for maintenance as the
sprockets have induction-hardened special teeth, and
are always engaged with the roller chain.
5. Pr
otection of machine
Rational flexibility decreases vibration, overheating and
wear of the bearings caused by the eccentricities and
angle errors of the shafts.
Standard housing
The standard housings for
No. 8022 or smaller are made
of aluminum alloy die casting,
and those for No. 10020 or
larger are made of aluminum
alloy casting. Installation of
housings has the following
advantages.
1. Advantages of housing
¡
Holding of lubrication
Since a roller chain coupling rotates with flexibility,
the teeth of the roller chain and sprockets slide
slightly during operation. So, they must be kept
lubricated for prevention of wear as much as
possible. The housing functions as a grease box for
the lubrication.
¡
Prevention of grease scattering
Especially in high speed rotation, grease may be
scattered by centrifugal force. The housing functions
as a protector that prevents this.
¡
Protection from dust and moisture (corrosive atmosphere)
When a roller chain coupling is used in a wear-
causing or corrosive circumstances, the chain life is
extremely shortened unless the coupling is perfectly
shielded from the circumstances. The housing
functions to protect the roller chain coupling,
preventing the shortening of life.
¡
High safety and neat appearance
Since the housing has no protrusions outside, it is
safe even if it rotates with the roller chain coupling. It
is also neat in appearance. (To avoid possible injury,
do not touch the housing when rotating.)
2. Structur
e
The roller chain coupling can be split in the direction
perpendicular to the shafts. The hole on the driving
shaft side of the housing firmly holds the coupling's
sprocket hub. The hole on the driven shaft side keeps a
clearance of 1 mm or more from the sprocket hub to
maintain flexibility of the coupling. Oil leakage from this
portion is prevented by a seal ring.
¡
Eccentricity
ε
:
Up to 2% of the roller chain pitch
When the roller chain coupling is used for high speed rotation (in the range of
lubrication types B and C), keep the allowances less than half of the above.
¡
Angle error
α
: Up to 1°
¡
Always wear clothing suitable for work and proper
protection (safety glasses, safety shoes, etc.).
¡
Strictly observe Section 1 "General standards
(prevention of danger by motors, revolving shafts,
etc.), Chapter 1, Part 2 of Occupational Safety and
Health Regulations.
¡
Be sure to switch off the electric power source or any
other power source before starting maintenance
work, and ensure that the power is never accidentally
switched on. Furthermore, make sure not to allow
your clothes or any parts of the body to be caught by
the chain or sprockets, or by any other nearby
equipment.
¡
Be sure to install a chain housing for type C and type
B (see "Table of Lubrication Types").
¡
For installing the roller chain coupling into a high-
speed machine or heavily vibrating machine, coat the
bolts with a loosening preventive.
¡
Install a safety cover to prevent any unexpected flying
of loosened bolts, or scattering of a broken housing
or chain.
¡
Never partially replace or re-use the coupling as its
strength will be lowered, causing damage or
destruction. Furthermore, since the coupling is heat-
treated, never modify the cotter holes or any other
parts. When replacement is necessary, replace the
roller chain coupling or housing as a set respectively.
¡
Noise during operation may be caused by malfunction
and the unit may need to be replaced. Immediately
switch off the power, and check the cause.
