TRP ROLLER CHAIN

‘UR’ CHAIN

‘LU’ CHAIN

Sintered Bushing roller chain uses bushings made of sintering alloy steel powder. Theporous spaces of the sintered bushings are impregnated with oil before hand, to increasethe life of the chain. However, sintered bushing roller chains are for low speed and lightduty applications.

The ‘LU’ chain has a film of fine crystallite that absorbs oil well. This chain is mostsuitable where splattering of oil and grease must be avoided. LU chain coated withgrease improves wear and resistance to corrosion. Temperatures up to +120° C.

Grease is sealed with X-Rings between pin and bushing. The X-Ring design offersgreater protection than the previous O-Ring design. It can be used in a very wide rangeof applications from low speed to high speed and from light duty to heavy duty,ensuring longer life. Furthermore, it is durable to some extent even at high temperature,and a chain adopting heat resistant X-Rings has actually been used in a 200 C oven.Since the pin length becomes longer by two X-Rings, refer to the catalogue fordimensions.

E.K. Rustless chain is an outstanding corrosion resistant chain because its surface isnickel plated. Rustless chain without grease has less performance than LU chain.However, the chain with grease shows good anti-corrosion performance. In a situationwhere chain is exposed to the possibility of hydrogen embrittlement caused by acidvapour or salty environment, nickel plating delays the corrosive effect on the chain.

This design is the European standard jaw coupling, as well as in many other parts of theworld. When equipment from overseas is used in Australia, Naismith Engineering canprovide the replacement flexible couplings and elastomers.These couplings require no lubrication and provide highly reliable service for light,medium and heavy duty electrical motor and internal combustion power transmissionapplications.

Other features and benefits include:• Fail-safe - will still perform if elastomer fails.• No metal to metal contact.• Resistant to oil, dirt, sand, moisture and grease.

CURVED JAW - Lovejoy

The simple design of the S-Flex coupling ensures ease of assembly and reliableperformance. No special tools are needed for installation or removal. S-flex couplingscan be used in a wide variety of applications. The S-Flex coupling is comprised of threeparts:- two flanges with internal teeth engage an elastomeric flexible sleeve withexternal teeth. It is available in pilot bore, taper bore and also as a spacer coupling.

Other features and benefits include:• No metal to metal contact.• Resistant to oil, dirt, sand, moisture and grease.• Dampens vibrations and controls shock.• Torsionally soft.

S-FLEX - Lovejoy

These couplings provide standard shaft-to-shaft connection for medium duty rangeapplications. The standard C coupling hub is made of cast iron. The coupling uses a setof SXB cushions instead of a spider. The load cushions are held in place radially by asteel collar which is attached to one of the hubs. The cushion design has the sameengineering purpose as the spider design but is more effective in the medium dutyapplications that ‘C’ Type couplings address.

‘C’ TYPE - Lovejoy

The RRS coupling is based on the standard Lovejoy Jaw type coupling. The center‘drop out’ section of this coupling provides proper shaft separation while also allowingeasy elastomer installation without disturbing the hubs or requiring realignment ofshafts. Designed for the pump industry, it accommodates metric standard pump/motorshaft separations. The ‘drop out’ spacer is made of glass reinforced plastic, cast iron oraluminium.

‘RRS‘ TYPE - Lovejoy

COUPLINGS

PAGE 13Engineering &


SHAFT COUPLINGS

‘AL‘ TYPE The aluminium construction means this coupling is light weight with low overhung load and low inertia. The AL type also offers excellent resistance to atmospheric conditions, so it is perfect for corrosive environment applications.

‘SS‘ TYPE

Hubs can be used with inserts in 4 different materials: Buna-N (Sox), Urethane, Hytrel and Bronze.

Stainless steel construction gives maximum protection to corrosive atmospheric conditions. Hubs can be used with inserts in 4 different materials: Buna-N (Sox), Urethane, Hytrel and Bronze. Lovejoy’s SS-type jaw coupling offers a new level of affordability and availability.

‘AL‘ & ’SS‘ TYPE - Lovejoy

The spider is non-fail-safe and thus acts as a fuse to prevent equipment damage in the event of torque overloads. It is radially removable, meaning that neither hub (or driver/driven equipment) has to be moved to replace the spider. This saves time and money in maintenance costs. The retaining ring which encloses the In-Shear Spider has 6 Pins which slide into grooves in the perimeter of the spider and twist-lock into place. It will not work its way loose and since there are no fasteners involved, maintenance removal of the spider takes only a few minutes. This coupling uses the standard L-type and C-type jaw coupling hubs. Existing applications using in-compression spiders can simply be retrofitted with the new In-Shear spider if the features are beneficial. The Jaw In-Shear spider is made from urethane and has different power ratings to the standard jaw coupling. It also uses different service factors.

‘LS‘ & ‘CS’ TYPE JAW IN-SHEAR - Lovejoy

The Jaw Type couplings from Lovejoy are offered in the industry's largest variety of stock bore/keyway combinations. These couplings require no lubrication and provide highly reliable service for light, medium and heavy duty electric motor and internal combustion power transmission applications.

Other features and benefits include:• Fail-safe - will still perform if elastomer fails.• No metal to metal contact. • Resistant to oil, dirt, sand, moisture and grease.

Hubs can be used with inserts in 4 different materials: Buna-N (Sox), Urethane, Hytrel and Bronze.

‘L‘ TYPE - Lovejoy



The Polyethylene Slide Block is available for use with British Standard simple, duplex and triplex chains. The assembly is supplied with a bolt set to suit. It is normally used in slower speed applications and has an operating speed range up to 20m/min and a

omaximum working temperature of +70 C.

SLIDE BLOCK - D.O.M.




The OVR & XOV Slide Blocks are available for use with British Standard simple chain. They are oval in shape allowing you to use both sides of the slide block giving double the life of a standard unit. Both are made in machined polyethylene HD100 and the XOV comes complete with stainless steel nuts and bolts. British Standard duplex and triplex chains can be accommodated by simply bolting 2 or 3 slide blocks together.

The Lovejoy Grid type flexible coupling reduces vibration by as much as 30%, and cushions shock loads to safeguard your driving and driven equipment. The flexible nature of the spring like grid absorbs impact energy by spreading it out over time, thus reducing the magnitude of the peak loads. This is possible because of the progressive contact that occurs between the curved profile of the hub teeth and the flexible grid. Grid couplings are designed for versatility. Common hubs and grids are used within a given size range for both horizontal and vertical split cover models. Grid installation and replacement is a 'snap', making maintenance very easy.

The Schmidt Control-Flex coupling was developed to satisfy the higher performancerequirements of today's modern power transmission drives. To meet this goal, SchmidtCoupling engineered the unique Control-Flex disc which is based on a parallel linkagesystem.Unlike elastomeric couplings, the Control-Flex disc allows parallel, angular and axialmisalignment, while offering higher torque rigidity and maintaining constanttransmission of torque and angular velocity.

CONTROL FLEX - Zero-Max

Only the Schmidt offset coupling, which requires a minimum offset, offers so muchflexibility in shaft displacement while maintaining undisturbed power transmission atconstant angular velocity. The coupling does not add secondary forces to the drive. Italso will not transmit radial vibration between the drive and the driven shafts. It is adynamically clean drive which will help provide a smooth flow of power for maximumproduct quality, and unlike universal joints, there is no performance loss by increasingshaft offset.Standard Schmidt offset couplings are available for parallel shaft displacement from aminimum of 4 to 440mm and torque capacities from 6.2 to 51,864Nm. Special couplingsizes can be manufactured for any specific customer requirement. The L100 seriescouplings will handle parallel shaft displacement from a minimum of 4mm to amaximum linear shaft displacement of 77mm with torque ratings from 6.2 to 146.8Nmand shaft speeds up to 4000 RPM. The L100 series is especially suitable for applicationsin business machines, optical, electronic equipment and robotics.The L200 and L300 series couplings are capable of handling parallel shaft displacementfrom a minimum of 11mm to a maximum linear shaft displacement of 440mm withtorque ratings from 71.9 to 51,864Nm and shaft speeds up to 2500 RPM. The L200 andL300 series are equipped with caged type needle bearings. The shafts are hardened andserve as the inner race of the needle bearings. The coupling can be mounted on shafthubs or directly to existing flanges. This mounting technique permits installation of theoffset coupling without any need to move either of the shafts being coupled.The Schmidt offset coupling has a slight built-in axial freedom to compensate forthermal shaft expansion and assembly tolerances.

BELLOWS - RulandBelflex™ bellows couplings are an assembly of two aluminium hubs and a uniform, thin walled stainless steel bellows. The use of aluminium hubs with a bellows results in a coupling with very low inertia, a feature that is very important in today’s highly responsive systems. The characteristics of bellows make them an ideal method for transmitting torque in motion control applications. The bellows allow the coupling to bend easily under loads caused by the three basic types of misalignment between shafts (angular, parallel, axial motion). Among servo couplings, bellows type couplings are one of the stiffest available, making them ideal in high performance applications that require a high degree of accuracy and repeatability.

OLDHAM - RulandOldham couplings are three piece couplings comprised of two aluminium hubs and a center member. The center disc, which is available in a choice of acetal for high torsional stiffness or nylon for vibration and shock absorption, is the torque transmitting element. Torque transmission is accomplished by mating slots in the center disc, located on opposite sides of the disc and oriented 90 degrees apart, with the drive tenons on the hubs. The slots of the disc fit on the tenons of the hub with a slight press fit. This press fit allows the coupling (with an acetal disc) to operate with zero backlash. The coupling can act as a mechanical fuse to protect equipment.

Discflex™ is available in single and double disc styles with bore sizes ranging from 1/8" to 1.1/4" in the inch series and 3mm to 30mm in the metric series.

Schmidt 5-D couplings were developed to fill a gap in the family of torque-rigidcouplings. Most couplings in this family are designed to accommodate either axial,angular, or parallel shaft displacements only. For some applications however, theoperational conditions require all possible shaft misalignments. If these shaftmisalignments exceed the limit of the selected coupling capacity, excess sideloads areintroduced into the equipment which can cause vibrations, life reduction or failure ofvital machine components such as bearings, motors, etc. The 5-D couplings, are amodification of the Schmidt inline coupling, designed to accommodate all 5 degrees ofshaft displacements. This patented coupling allows easy adjustment to any possiblemisaligned shaft position without imposing heavy sideloads on shafts, bearings or othermachine equipment. Schmidt 5-D couplings offer large shaft misalignment capabilitiesand constant angular velocity. The acting forces within the coupling can be preciselycalculated, ensuring a sound coupling design which is especially important for heavy-duty applications.

The principal feature of the Baumann Flex coupling is the multi-layer and multi-coilspring assembly, which is brazed firmly to the end pieces designed either as collars,flanges or hubs. The coupling serves primarily to take up inaccuracies of alignmentbetween two rotating shafts; it provides torsional flexibility in the coupling of suchshafts and dampens vibration. Its effectiveness is largely independent of the direction ofrotation, as in one direction the outer and middle counter-coiled spring layers worktogether to transmit the load, while in the other direction, the middle and inner layerscome into operation.

Hexadrive pulleys are the most durable variable speed pulleys available. The hexagon-shaped center shaft efficiently transmits torque through the six hex flats for topperformance and long life. The surface of the shaft is covered with a resilient elastomer,which means there is no metal-to-metal contact on any sliding surface and lubrication isnot necessary. These pulleys are available in adjustable or fixed center drives and comein two styles: one-side moveable for V-Flat drives, and two-side moveable for V-Vdrives. Flanges are made of cast iron to provide a long-wearing belt contact area. Thesepulleys provide size ranges from 150mm up to 315mm diameter, and a maximum ratingof 18kW at 1,425RPM.

In general, fixed center drives provide a greater total speed ratio than adjustable centerdrives. Traditional designs offer two pulleys of the same diameter, which means that alarge portion of the driven speed range will be above motor speed. For thoseapplications that require wide speed range and low driven speed, this has been aproblem. Lovejoy’s Hi-Ratio system solves this problem by mating smaller driver andlarger driven pulleys to provide the unique combination of broader driven speed rangesand lower minimum driven speeds.

OVERLOADPROTECTORS

Torq-Tenders are positive drive couplings which provide accurate overload protection inmany mechanical power transmission systems. When a jam-up or excess overloadoccurs, Torq-Tenders disengage motor drives. Their effective, versatile design, protectyour drive train, motor, and entire system. When load exceeds the rating determined byprecision tempered torque springs, the unit's drive key pivots out of a slot to disengagethe coupling. Once the overload is removed and speed reduced, the Torq-Tender resetsitself automatically. All models are available with actuating pins or actuating disc,which will automatically signal an overload warning or shut the machines system downentirely.

LINEAR ACTUATORS

The Roh'lix Linear Actuator is a device that converts rotary motion into linear motion.The Roh'lix uses rolling element ball bearings that trace a helix pattern along the shaft,which produces a Rolling Helix, or Roh'lix for short. Available sizes have thrustcapacities ranging from 67 to 889 Newtons and 15 to 200 lbs, shaft diameters ranging

from 8mm to 50mm and 3/8 to 2 , and leads ranging from 0.625mm to 150mm and

0.025 to 6.00 .The Roh'lix Linear Actuator consists of six pre-loaded bearings that contact the shaft atan angle. When the shaft is rotated, the bearings trace out an imaginary screw thread,causing the Roh'lix to travel linearly along the shaft.The thrust of the Roh'lix is established by spring force between the two block halves.The thrust force is adjusted by the thrust adjustment screws on the top of the block,allowing the thrust setting to be fine-tuned to individual applications.
