POSITIONAL TORQUE LIMITER DETECTABLE DESYNCHRONIZATION Ball system · Type LPB Features The EIDE LPB torque limiters are mechanisms designed to absorb the overload of work on any type of machine. When the predetermined torque is exceeded, slip occurs and one of his pieces is displaced. This displacement is indicated by the dimension n. In these cases, the loss of synchronization can be detected through a micro switch and the transmission be stopped by an electrical signal. Once detected and fixed the problem, and started the movement, the limiter LPB allows us to recover the mechanical synchronism for which it is built. This normally consists of 360 (other configurations, such as 60, 90, 120 and 180, on request). Structure 1 is suitable for transmitting motion between parallel axes. Structure 2 incorporates a flexible coupling that allows joining shafts with small misalignments. Torque in relation to angular sliding between parts B and C CHARACTERISTIC CURVE Synchronism recovery Overload start Resisting torque (machine) Synchronism search torque Angular sliding ASSEMBLY EXAMPLES Assembly example in structure 1 to transmit movement between parallel shafts. Above: adaptation to chain sprocket. Below: adaptation to pulley. Assembly example in structure 2 Adaptation between two shafts aligned with elastic coupling. This procedure allows to absorb small misalignments (angular, linear or a combination of both).
