Layout and working principles
GEar type couplings are torsionally rigid. Due to the spe- Types of misalignment
cial design of their teeth, they compensate for axial, ra-
dial and angular misalignments of the connected machin-
ery.
Special Features
Small outside dimensions, large bores, low weights, low
moments of inertia, large permissible misalignments,
crowned and barrelled teeth. The assembly is selfcentring
and hermetacally sealed through either double-lipped
seals or O-rings (smaller sizes only).
From size 670 upwards, the maximum lubricant level does
not exceed the height of the sealing lip in the lower part of
the coupling.
Layout and working principles
The hub teeh which are crowned and barrelled and which
have permit angular,axial and radial misalignments within
specified limits.
Due to movement between the teeth under running con-
ditions either oil or grease lubrication is necessary. (Con-
sult ELECON for lubricant to be used).
The coupling housing is selfcentring owing to the invo-
lute tooth form. The tooth tolerances are such that parts
are interchangeable.

Normally displacements occure in combinations. The

permissible angular displacement per hub for all couplings
of ordinary design is ±10. In clutch couplings the maxi-
mum angular displacement per hub must not exceed ±0.50
In special cases larger angular displacements can be
achieved rthrough modified toothe crowning. Generally,
the smaller the displacement, the higher the torque trans-
mitting capacity of the couplings.
