Torque Range 0,63 kNm bis 20,0 kNm
Applications Cardan Shaft drives
Flexibly mounted engines
Options With torsional limit device
Elements Rubber - linear characteristic
Silicone - progressive characteristic

Features

  • Integrated bearings to support the cardan shaft and to protect the crank shaft bearing
  • Allows large angles of cardan shaft inclination
  • Radial and axial restraints isolate the crankshaft from damaging reaction forces
  • Reduces engine crankshaft loading and loading of driveline due to axial crankshaft growth
  • Prelubricated bearings are practically maintenance free
  • Provides precise system tuning by offering several combinations of rubber and silicone couplings
  • Dampens torsional vibrations
  • Rubber-in-shear design serves as a mechanical fuse to protect equipment from excessive torques
  • Accommodates SAE flywheels, SAE housings, and standard U-joint connections
  • Custom configurations available upon request

Description

In addition to the cardan shaft series coupling program VULKAN has developed a bellhousing with an integral bearing. This design fitts in installations where the cardan shaft has a large angle of inclination. The resulting lateral and axial reaction forces from the cardan shaft are supported by the bell-housing so reducing the engine crankshaft loading.
