The working principle of ml type plum blossom elastic coupling

The ml-type plum blossom elastic coupling is actually a relatively popular coupling in industrial production, and it is also relatively common in use. For practitioners, it is not enough to know the appearance and structure. Let's listen to how the factory technicians explain the working principle of the plum blossom elastic coupling.

What is the working principle of ml type plum blossom elastic coupling:
The plum blossom elastic coupling consists of a plum blossom elastic pad made of rubber or polyurethane and two convex claws of the half coupling with the same shape. The elastic pad is installed between the two half-couplings to complete the connection. The power is transmitted through the extrusion between the convex claw and the elastic pad. At the same time, the relative offset of the two shafts is compensated by the elastic deformation of the elastic pad to achieve the effect of damping and buffering. . It's easier to understand that way.

What are the materials of the ml-type plum blossom elastic coupling:
The main materials of the plum blossom elastic coupling are: No. 45 steel, 40CrMo, stainless steel, cast steel, cast iron, aluminum alloy, etc. Among them, No. 45 steel is used more in large-scale machinery and equipment, while aluminum alloy material is used in precision more on type devices. In addition, the elastic pads in the middle are mostly polyurethane, nylon and rubber. In contrast, there will be more polyurethane because the price is cheap.

After reading the working principle of the ml-type plum blossom elastic coupling introduced above, we can all find that the elastic pad in the middle of the coupling is its important part. In ordinary occasions, polyurethane material can meet the needs. Rubber and nylon are two kinds of better quality, and the buffering and transmission effects are also better.
