Flexible element made up of a variable number of FLEXIBLE STUDS
1 depending on the torque to be transmitted:
2 Solid natural rubber blocks in the form of a truncated cone.
3 Internal armature bonded to the rubber.
4 Threaded stud.
5 External armature bonded to the rubber.
6 Studding welded to armature.
7 Cylindrical metal cover.
Steel disks:
8 Two identical disks, bolted to the flanges 10 and with slits 9 to house the studs 1.
Flanges: 10 die-cast steel.
The RADIAFLEX RTP coupling is designed with the following features:
– The studs can be removed radially without moving the coupled machines.
– At low and average torque: the rubber operates under compression.
– At high torque: there is progressive thrust of the rubber against the metal cover 3.
– Safe in use.
– It can absorb the effects of tension or compression axially (for example: push and pull of a helical screw).
Flexible element 1 composed of:
2 Natural rubber ring.
3 Internal armature bonded to the rubber.
4 External collar force fitted to the rubber.
Flanges 5: die-cast steel fixed on to the internal armature 3 and collar 4.
Flexible element 1: polyurethane in the form of a Maltese cross.
Flange 2: cast iron with drive segments 3 supplied unbored (except633054 and 633055).
Variations : For assemblies with a ring or spacer, consult our technical manuals.
