Application Case
Typical case of diaphragm coupling applied to variable frequency speed control equipment
JMB type coupling is applied to HangZhou Oilfield Thermal Power Plant
According to the requirements of HangZhou Electric Power Corporation, HangZhou Oilfield Thermal Power Plant should dynamically adjust the power generation according to the load of the power grid and market demand, and carry out the transformation of the frequency converter and the suction fan. The motor was originally a 1600KW, 730RPM non-frequency variable speed motor matched by HangZhou Motor Factory. The speed control mode after changing the frequency is manual control. Press the button speed to increase 10RPM or drop 10RPM. The coupling is still the original elastic decoupling coupling, and the elastic de-coupling coupling after frequency conversion is frequently damaged, which directly affects the normal power generation.
It is found through analysis that in the process of frequency conversion speed regulation, the pin of the coupling can not bear the inertia of the speed regulation process (the diameter of the fan impeller is 3.3 meters) and is cut off, which has great damage to the motor and the fan.
Later, they switched to the JMB460 double-diaphragm wheel-type coupling of our factory (patent number: ZL.99246247.9). After 1 hour of destructive experiment and more than 1 year of operation test, the equipment is running very well, and there is no Replace the diaphragm. 12 units have been rebuilt and the operation is in good condition.

Installing and Aligning a Jaw Coupling for Optimal Performance
Proper installation and alignment of a jaw coupling are critical to ensure optimal performance, minimize wear, and prevent premature failure. Here are the steps to install and align a jaw coupling correctly:
- Inspect the Coupling: Before installation, inspect the coupling components for any damage or defects. Ensure that the elastomeric spider (flexible element) is in good condition and free from any debris.
- Prepare the Shaft Ends: Clean the shaft ends and remove any dirt, rust, or burrs. Make sure the shafts are smooth and free from contaminants that could affect the coupling’s grip.
- Insert the Spider: Place the elastomeric spider into the jaws of one coupling half. It’s crucial to ensure the spider is seated correctly and evenly distributed within the jaws.
- Align the Coupling Halves: Carefully align the two coupling halves, ensuring that the shaft ends are concentric and coaxial. Misalignment can lead to additional stresses and premature wear on the coupling.
- Tighten Fasteners: Insert the fasteners (usually set screws or clamping bolts) and tighten them evenly and sequentially. It’s essential to follow the manufacturer’s recommended torque values to avoid overtightening, which could damage the spider or cause stress on the shafts.
- Check Alignment: After tightening the fasteners, recheck the alignment of the coupling to ensure the shafts remain properly aligned. If necessary, make any adjustments to achieve accurate alignment.
- Lubrication: Some jaw couplings may require lubrication for smooth operation. Check the manufacturer’s guidelines for lubrication requirements and use the recommended lubricant.
- Run-In Period: After installation, it’s advisable to run the coupling at low speed and gradually increase the load to allow the spider to settle into its operating position. This run-in period helps ensure proper seating and further verifies alignment.
It’s essential to follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions and guidelines specific to the jaw coupling model being used. Proper installation and alignment will result in reliable and efficient power transmission, reduced maintenance costs, and extended coupling life.
How does a jaw coupling deal with backlash and torsional stiffness?
A jaw coupling addresses backlash and torsional stiffness through its unique design features and choice of materials. Backlash is the amount of free play or clearance between the coupling components, while torsional stiffness refers to the resistance of the coupling to torsional or twisting forces. Here’s how a jaw coupling deals with these aspects:
- Backlash: Jaw couplings are designed to minimize backlash by ensuring a close fit between the elastomer spider and the jaws of the coupling hubs. The elastomer spider acts as a flexible intermediary that fills the space between the mating jaws, reducing any free play between them. This close fit reduces backlash and provides a more precise and responsive power transmission, especially in reversing or intermittent motion applications.
- Torsional Stiffness: Torsional stiffness is achieved in jaw couplings by using materials that provide a balance between flexibility and rigidity. The elastomer spider in the coupling offers some flexibility, allowing it to absorb vibrations and dampen shocks. However, to ensure adequate torsional stiffness, the coupling hubs are usually made from sturdier materials like steel or aluminum. The choice of elastomer material and its geometry also influences the torsional stiffness of the coupling. Some applications may require coupling designs with higher torsional stiffness to maintain the accuracy and stability of the system, while others may benefit from more flexible couplings that can accommodate misalignments and shock loads. Overall, the combination of the elastomer’s flexibility and the coupling hub’s rigidity results in a coupling with a balanced torsional stiffness that can meet the specific needs of the application.
In summary, a jaw coupling minimizes backlash by providing a close fit between the coupling components, and it achieves torsional stiffness by using a combination of flexible elastomer materials and rigid coupling hubs. These design considerations make jaw couplings suitable for a wide range of applications that require reliable power transmission, precise motion control, and the ability to handle misalignments and shocks.
Maintenance Requirements for Jaw Couplings
Jaw couplings are relatively low-maintenance components, but regular inspections and preventive measures can help ensure their optimal performance and longevity. Here are the maintenance requirements for jaw couplings:
- Visual Inspections: Regularly inspect the jaw coupling for signs of wear, damage, or misalignment. Look for cracks, chips, or deformation in the elastomeric spider, hubs, and other components.
- Lubrication: Some jaw couplings require periodic lubrication of the elastomeric spider to prevent dry rot and ensure flexibility. Refer to the manufacturer’s guidelines for the appropriate lubrication schedule and type.
- Tighten Fasteners: Check and tighten all fasteners, including set screws, regularly to prevent coupling slippage and maintain a secure connection between the shafts and hubs.
- Alignment: Ensure that the shafts connected by the jaw coupling are properly aligned. Excessive misalignment can lead to premature wear and failure of the elastomeric spider.
- Replace Worn Parts: If any component of the jaw coupling shows signs of wear beyond acceptable limits, promptly replace it to avoid further damage and potential system failure.
- Operating Conditions: Monitor the operating conditions of the machinery to prevent overheating or overloading, which can affect the performance and life of the coupling.
Following these maintenance practices can extend the life of the jaw coupling, reduce the risk of unexpected failures, and contribute to the overall reliability of the mechanical system.
