What is a torque limiter and how to install a torque limiter

More and more comprehensive information in this regard can actually be found in Shanghai Yijia's development. Shanghai Yijia ** development to"Professional quality, excellence"For the purpose of to:"People-oriented, honest and trustworthy"For the business philosophy, to:"Serve customers, satisfy customers, and improve customers"As the goal, the products have won the trust of all partners with good quality and good service, and formed a good business environment.

The main function of the torque limiter is overload protection, also known as the safety coupling, or safety clutch, is a component connecting the active machine and the working machine, when the required torque exceeds the set value due to overload or mechanical failure, it limits the torque transmitted by the transmission system in the form of slippage, and resumes the connection when the overload disappears, so as to prevent mechanical damage and avoid expensive downtime losses. The main applications of torque limiters are in printing equipment, battery industry, chip conveyors, conveying production lines, splitters and other industries.

Summary. The torque limiter mainly detects torque, torsional friction and other mechanical property tests, and selects a torsion testing machine to complete the test.

How should the torque limiter be installed.

The installation method is divided into two types, shaft-shaft, shaft-flange connection, shaft-flange connection is simpler, generally with keyway, and the shaft can be inserted. Shaft-flange, the flange here can refer to the pulley, synchronous pulley, sprocket, gear, the majority of general customers with sprockets, the steel ball type roller type with sprocket to punch holes on the sprocket, with the steel ball type hole, friction type is to put the sprocket on the copper sleeve (called the ring), the thickness of the sprocket does not exceed the size of the sample, there are no special requirements for the sprocket material, ordinary carbon steel can.

How to install the torque limiter.

The torque limiter mainly detects torque, torsional friction and other mechanical property tests, and selects a torsion testing machine to complete the test. How the torque limiter should be installed and installed is divided into two types, vertical shaft-shaft, shaft-flange connection, shaft-flange connection should be simpler, generally with keyway, shaft insertion can. Shaft-flange, the flange in this auspicious fiber imitation can refer to the pulley, synchronous pulley fiber, sprocket, gear, the majority of general customers with sprockets, steel ball roller sprocket to punch holes in the sprocket, with steel ball holes, friction is to put the sprocket on the copper sleeve (called the ring), the thickness of the sprocket does not exceed the size of the sample, there are no special requirements for the sprocket material, ordinary carbon steel can.

Dear, hope. If you can, please give my brother a thumbs up (o o) thank you

Here's how to adjust the torque limiter:

1.Unlock the torque limiter: You need to confirm that the torque limiter is locked, and if it is locked, you need to unlock it. Usually the torque limiter has a locking button or handle on it.

2.Adjust the torque limiter: Turn the device to the position where the torque limiter needs to be adjusted, and then adjust the settings of the torque limiter as needed.

In general, the torque limit of the torque limiter can be adjusted by rotating the adjusting nut or handle on the torque limiter. For the specific adjustment method, please refer to the manual of the equipment.

3.Testing the Torque Limiter: After the torque limiter has been adjusted, it needs to be tested to ensure that it is working properly. The machine can be turned to the position where the torque limiter needs to work for testing.

4.Lock the torque limiter: After the test is complete, make sure the torque limiter has been adjusted to the desired torque limit, and then lock it to avoid misadjusting or touching the torque limiter during use.

It is equivalent to a tonnage-level scale, the accuracy is not high, and the main detection range is high-end. An overload turns on the relevant circuits and disables some functions.

Most of the torque limiters on the market today are bi-directional, and theoretically have the same protection torque value (overload slip torque) for both forward and backward sides. However, there are also types in which one direction can be overloaded and the other direction cannot be overloaded, or the overload torque is different (large or small) (one direction can be overloaded and skidding, while the other direction is equivalent to a rigid connection, and the disengagement cannot be realized when the torque transmitted in this direction increases). Alternatively, the slip torque value (disengagement torque value) is different in both directions, but the torque value in both directions is also a function of each other).

As mentioned in Answer 1, if the forward and reverse torque values are the same (this is the case for most models on the market, theoretically. In fact, because there will be a slight error in processing, which can generally be ignored), then after the forward rotation is disengaged, it is reversed with the same torque, and it is impossible to reset and drive the transmission parts.

If the forward rotation can be disengaged and skidding, the reverse cannot be overloaded. In the above case, after the overload of the formal installation is disconnected, it is obvious that the reversal can drive the load to rotate.

If the disengagement torque value of the forward and reverse is large and the disengagement torque value is small, then the disengagement torque value of the reverse must be greater than the disengagement torque value of the positive direction, so that the load can be driven when the same torque is reversed after the positive overload is disengaged. Attention, it's just possible. It is not because the reverse disengagement torque is larger than the forward direction, and it must be able to drive the load in the opposite direction.

In this case, it depends on whether the torque value of "same torque" described in the question is greater than the reverse disengagement torque. If the torque value is larger than that of the reverse disengagement, it will still not be able to carry it. If the torque value is smaller than that of the reverse disengagement, it can be driven.
