WGP Drum Gear Coupling With Brake Disc is an improved type of gear coupling, consisting of inner gear and the same number of teeth of the flange half band coupling parts etc..
WGP Drum Gear Coupling With Brake Disc at work, 2 have the relative angular displacement, relative axial sliding periodic internal and external gear tooth surface, will inevitably lead to tooth wear and power consumption, therefore, the gear coupling needs to work in good condition and seal. The toothed coupling has small radial size and large load capacity. It is usually used for shafting transmission under low speed and heavy load conditions. The high accuracy and dynamic balancing gear coupling can be used for high speed transmission.
Features:
1. Double drum-shaped tooth structure, can compensate for a larger axis offset,
2. The brake disc is arranged at the passive end of the coupling, the weight of the brake disc and the working brake load and vibration are completely supported by the half coupling, thereby improving the meshing performance of the drum teeth during braking,
3. The maximum braking torque is not restricted by the structural strength of the coupling, safe and reliable,
4. Compact structure, brake disc cooling conditions are good,
5. Plug-in brake disc can be quickly be replaced without removing the device.

Function of Disc Couplings in Torque Transmission and Misalignment Compensation
Disc couplings are designed to transmit torque between two shafts while accommodating various forms of misalignment. The primary components of a disc coupling include two hubs and a flexible disc element made of a resilient material such as stainless steel. Here’s how a disc coupling works to transmit torque and handle misalignment:
- Torque Transmission: When torque is applied to one hub of the disc coupling, it induces angular displacement in the flexible disc. The flexible disc element bends slightly, allowing the torque to be transmitted from one hub to the other. This bending action of the disc results in an elastic deformation, which helps maintain the torque transfer.
- Angular Misalignment Compensation: Disc couplings can accommodate angular misalignment between the two connected shafts. As the hubs are misaligned angularly, the flexible disc element compensates by bending at an angle. The disc’s flexibility and the elastic properties of the material allow it to absorb and accommodate the angular misalignment without transmitting excessive forces to the connected machinery.
- Parallel Misalignment Compensation: In cases of parallel misalignment, where the axes of the two shafts are not perfectly aligned, the disc coupling can also absorb a certain degree of parallel offset. The flexibility of the disc allows for slight axial movement, ensuring that the hubs remain connected even when there’s a minor parallel misalignment.
- Torsional Stiffness: While disc couplings are designed to accommodate misalignment, they also exhibit torsional stiffness. This means that under normal operating conditions, the disc coupling remains rigid enough to efficiently transmit torque between the shafts, minimizing torsional deflection and maintaining the integrity of torque transfer.
The design and material properties of the flexible disc element play a crucial role in determining the coupling’s ability to handle misalignment while transmitting torque effectively. Disc couplings are widely used in various industrial applications where torque transmission and misalignment compensation are critical requirements.
