Lovejoy 68514445102 jaw coupling hub is used in industrial machinery and equipment, in applications across manufacturing, conveyor systems and pumps. This coupling hub connects two shafts, facilitating the transfer of torque and motion between them to efficiently accommodate for angular and axial misalignment, reducing stress on shafts and connected components.
Working Mechanism:
- As one shaft begins to rotate, the curved jaws within the coupling securely engage one another, enabling the efficient transfer of torque from one shaft to the other. This, in turn, facilitates the transmission of power and motion between the shafts.
- The jaw coupling hub consists of dual sets of curved jaws, with one set affixed to each shaft. These jaws seamlessly interlock with each other when the hub is mounted onto both shafts, ensuring a reliable connection.
Features:
- This Lovejoy L150 coupling hub is equipped with a keyway for precise alignment and a stainless steel bore, which enhances corrosion resistance and longevity.
- It further features keyway finish and stainless steel finish, ensuring a smooth and precise fit.
- This Lovejoy L150 coupling hub features iron construction for high strength and structural rigidity.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How do you calculate the size of Lovejoy L150 couplings?
A.
- Obtain the required factor from the service factor tables
- Determine the application kW per 100 RPM: kW per 100 RPM = Motor kW x 100 x service factor / coupling RPM.
- From the rating tables, locate a rating equal to or greater than the kW/100 RPM.
- Note the coupling size from the left-hand column.
Q. What is the maximum operating speed of Lovejoy 68514445102 jaw coupling hub?
A. It can operate at speeds up to 5000 RPM.
