Product Description
Main products
Coupling refers to a device that connects 2 shafts or shafts and rotating parts, rotates together during the transmission of motion and power, and does not disengage under normal conditions. Sometimes it is also used as a safety device to prevent the connected parts from bearing excessive load, which plays the role of overload protection.
Couplings can be divided into rigid couplings and flexible couplings.
Rigid couplings do not have buffering property and the ability to compensate the relative displacement of 2 axes. It is required that the 2 axes be strictly aligned. However, such couplings are simple in structure, low in manufacturing cost, convenient in assembly and disassembly, and maintenance, which can ensure that the 2 axes are relatively neutral, have large transmission torque, and are widely used. Commonly used are flange coupling, sleeve coupling and jacket coupling.
Flexible coupling can also be divided into flexible coupling without elastic element and flexible coupling with elastic element. The former type only has the ability to compensate the relative displacement of 2 axes, but cannot cushion and reduce vibration. Common types include slider coupling, gear coupling, universal coupling and chain coupling; The latter type contains elastic elements. In addition to the ability to compensate the relative displacement of 2 axes, it also has the functions of buffering and vibration reduction. However, due to the strength of elastic elements, the transmitted torque is generally inferior to that of flexible couplings without elastic elements. Common types include elastic sleeve pin couplings, elastic pin couplings, quincunx couplings, tire type couplings, serpentine spring couplings, spring couplings, etc
Coupling performance
1) Mobility. The movability of the coupling refers to the ability to compensate the relative displacement of 2 rotating components. Factors such as manufacturing and installation errors between connected components, temperature changes during operation and deformation under load all put CHINAMFG requirements for mobility. The movable performance compensates or alleviates the additional load between shafts, bearings, couplings and other components caused by the relative displacement between rotating components.
(2) Buffering. For the occasions where the load is often started or the working load changes, the coupling shall be equipped with elastic elements that play the role of cushioning and vibration reduction to protect the prime mover and the working machine from little or no damage.
(3) Safe, reliable, with sufficient strength and service life.
(4) Simple structure, easy to assemble, disassemble and maintain.
How to select the appropriate coupling type
The following items should be considered when selecting the coupling type.
1. The size and nature of the required transmission torque, the requirements for buffering and damping functions, and whether resonance may occur.
2. The relative displacement of the axes of the 2 shafts is caused by manufacturing and assembly errors, shaft load and thermal expansion deformation, and relative movement between components.
3. Permissible overall dimensions and installation methods, and necessary operating space for assembly, adjustment and maintenance. For large couplings, they should be able to be disassembled without axial movement of the shaft.
In addition, the working environment, service life, lubrication, sealing, economy and other conditions should also be considered, and a suitable coupling type should be selected by referring to the characteristics of various couplings.

Contribution of Fluid Coupling to the Longevity of Connected Equipment
A fluid coupling plays a crucial role in enhancing the longevity and protecting the connected equipment by providing the following benefits:
- Shock Load Damping: When the equipment starts or stops, there can be sudden changes in torque, resulting in shock loads. The fluid coupling absorbs and dampens these shock loads, reducing stress and wear on the connected equipment.
- Torsional Vibration Damping: Torsional vibrations can occur during the operation of the connected equipment, which can be damaging over time. The fluid coupling acts as a torsional damper, reducing these vibrations and preventing potential fatigue failure in the equipment.
- Overload Protection: In case of sudden overloads or jamming of the connected equipment, the fluid coupling can slip and decouple the load, protecting both the equipment and the driving motor from excessive stress and damage.
- Smooth Startup: During startup, the fluid coupling allows a gradual increase in torque, enabling a smooth and controlled acceleration of the connected equipment. This eliminates sudden jerks and reduces mechanical stress during the startup phase.
- Load Distribution: The fluid coupling distributes the load evenly across the connected equipment, minimizing wear and tear on specific components and extending the overall lifespan of the machinery.
- Reduced Maintenance: By reducing shock loads and vibrations, the fluid coupling helps decrease the frequency of maintenance and repairs required for the connected equipment, resulting in cost savings and improved uptime.
- Energy Efficiency: The fluid coupling allows for efficient power transmission by reducing losses during startup and load changes. This, in turn, helps in lowering the overall energy consumption of the system and contributes to equipment longevity.
- Contamination Prevention: The fluid coupling encapsulates the driving and driven components, providing a barrier that helps prevent contaminants such as dust, dirt, and moisture from entering the equipment’s internal components. This protection can extend the life of bearings and other sensitive parts.
Overall, a fluid coupling acts as a protective intermediary between the driving motor and the connected equipment, enhancing the system’s reliability, efficiency, and longevity by mitigating the effects of shocks, vibrations, and overloads.
Contribution of Fluid Coupling to the Overall Efficiency of a Mechanical System
A fluid coupling plays a crucial role in improving the overall efficiency of a mechanical system, especially in applications where smooth power transmission, soft-starting, and torque control are essential. Here’s how a fluid coupling contributes to system efficiency:
1. Smooth Power Transmission:
Fluid couplings provide a smooth and gradual transfer of power from the driving to the driven machinery. The absence of direct mechanical contact between the input and output shafts reduces shock loads and vibrations, leading to less wear and tear on the connected equipment. This smooth power transmission results in increased system efficiency and reduced downtime.
2. Soft-Start Capability:
Fluid couplings offer soft-starting functionality, which is particularly beneficial for high-inertia or heavy-load applications. During startup, the fluid coupling allows the input shaft to gradually accelerate the output shaft, preventing sudden jerks or torque spikes. Soft-starting not only protects the mechanical components but also reduces energy consumption during the starting phase, contributing to overall efficiency.
3. Torque Control:
Fluid couplings enable precise control over the torque transmitted between the driving and driven machinery. By adjusting the fill level or using variable speed couplings, the torque output can be fine-tuned to match the requirements of the application. This feature ensures optimal performance and energy efficiency, especially in systems where torque demand varies during operation.
4. Overload Protection:
In case of sudden overloads or jamming of the driven machinery, the fluid coupling acts as a torque limiter. It will slip and absorb excess torque, protecting the mechanical system from damage. This overload protection not only safeguards the equipment but also contributes to the longevity and efficiency of the entire system.
5. Heat Dissipation:
Fluid couplings can absorb and dissipate heat generated during continuous operations. This heat dissipation capability prevents the system from overheating, ensuring consistent performance and avoiding thermal damage to the machinery. By maintaining proper operating temperatures, the fluid coupling aids in improving overall efficiency.
6. Energy Savings:
With its ability to reduce shock loads and provide smooth acceleration, a fluid coupling can help save energy during starting and stopping cycles. The elimination of mechanical shocks and vibrations reduces energy losses, resulting in higher overall energy efficiency.
In summary, a fluid coupling enhances the overall efficiency of a mechanical system by providing smooth power transmission, soft-start capability, precise torque control, overload protection, heat dissipation, and energy savings. Its contributions to reduced wear and tear, energy-efficient operations, and enhanced equipment lifespan make it a valuable component in various industrial applications.
Use of Fluid Couplings in Horizontal and Vertical Shaft Arrangements
Yes, fluid couplings can be used in both horizontal and vertical shaft arrangements, providing flexible power transmission solutions for various industrial applications.
1. Horizontal Shaft Arrangements:
In horizontal shaft arrangements, the fluid coupling is installed between the driving and driven shafts, which are positioned horizontally and parallel to each other. The fluid coupling allows torque to be transmitted smoothly from the driving shaft to the driven shaft, enabling the machinery or equipment to start up gradually without abrupt shocks or overloading. This feature is especially beneficial in applications where heavy loads need to be accelerated smoothly, such as conveyors, crushers, and pumps.
2. Vertical Shaft Arrangements:
In vertical shaft arrangements, the fluid coupling is used to connect the driving and driven shafts, which are positioned vertically and aligned on top of each other. The fluid coupling allows for torque transmission and controlled acceleration, just like in horizontal arrangements. Vertical shaft fluid couplings are commonly used in applications such as vertical conveyors, hoists, and elevators, where they provide smooth starting and stopping of the equipment, preventing sudden jolts and reducing stress on the machinery.
Fluid couplings offer versatility in power transmission and are adaptable to various shaft arrangements, making them suitable for a wide range of industrial setups. Whether the application involves horizontal or vertical shafts, fluid couplings play a crucial role in enhancing the performance, safety, and efficiency of power transmission systems.
