Misalignment and End-Float Capability

Lovejoy / Sier-Bath couplings are stocked in an assortment of configurations


which include C and F standard hubs and sleeves, Mill Motor hubs, Vertical
style, Floating Shaft, and Spacer designs. Lovejoys superb engineering
staff make it possible to support many additional coupling types such as the
Brakedrum type, Sliding Hub type, Shear Pin type, Jordan type, and custom
lengths for non standard shaft separations. Additional size ranges and
designs to meet unusual application requirements can also be manufactured
by Lovejoy to meet market demands. Material can range from standard
steel to alloy steel and even stainless steel. The exceptional simplicity of the
Lovejoy coupling design make this all possible.

The basic principle of Lovejoy / Sier-Bath C and F type couplings is similar


to that of other conventional flexible gear couplings. While it is desirable to
align shafts as accurately as possible, the purpose of any flexible coupling
is to absorb probable angular, parallel, and axial (end-float) misalignment.
Lovejoy/Sier-Bath couplings utilize a unique gear tooth geometry developed
specifically to resolve issues with shaft misalignment and accommodate
from 1/2 to 1-1/2 per gear mesh or flex plane. The hub teeth are fully
crowned to provide for a larger contact area and lower stresses under
misaligned conditions. The crowned tooth design also eliminates most of
the end loading that occurs on straight gear teeth under misalignment.

WARNING
You must refer to page G-2 (Page 116) for Important Safety Instructions and
Precautions for the selection and use of these products. Failure to follow the
instructions and precautions can result in severe injury or death.

Overview
Lovejoy / Sier-Bath Nyflex and Mite
Lovejoy / Sier-Bath Nylon couplings are compact and require no
lubrication. They operate over a wide temperature range at speeds up
to 5,000 RPM and are effectively used in applications such as Motor/
Generator sets, pump sets, and many light to medium duty industrial
coupling applications.
No lubricants are ever required, eliminating the need for seals. The resilient
nature of the nylon material makes the contact of the hubs and sleeves
almost frictionless. Since no lubrication is used, the coupling can readily be
adapted to many applications including vertical and blind installations where
the slip-together components offer easy inspection and adjustment.

When completely assembled, the Mite coupling weighs less than 1lb and
the Nyflex only 3.50 lbs. Weights for Dentex couplings can be found on
page G-30.

Gear
Overview
Vari-Crown Tooth Form
Straight
With straight hub teeth, there is a high concentration of load under
misaligned conditions. As misalignment increases, more of the load is
carried by the ends of the teeth, resulting in premature breakdown and
coupling failure.

Conventional Crown

Lovejoy / Sier-Bath Vari-Crown


The Sier-Bath Vari-Crown tooth form has a crown at the center of the tooth
which is similar to a conventionally crowned tooth coupling. However,
as soon as misalignment occurs, the transmitted torque is carried on a
flattened area of the hub tooth which is considerably broader and stronger
than the conventionally crowned tooth form. Note the larger contact area
and reduced stress area of the Vari-Crown tooth form.

Patented Vari-Crown Tooth Form for Long Life


Facts

Constant Velocity Power Transmission


1

It can be shown that bodies with the smallest relative curvature have
the largest area of contact under load, or specifically, a body with the
largest radius of curvature has the largest area of contact with another
body when under load. More importantly, under a given load the bodies
with the greater radii of curvature have lower induced surface contact
stresses.
Gear tooth couplings have fewer teeth in contact as misalignment
increases.

Lower Stresses
Lovejoy / Sier-Baths solution to these facts was the development of the
patented Vari-Crown tooth form. The Vari-Crown tooth form is a curve
with constantly changing radii of curvature. The tooth contact area
under misaligned conditions has a much larger radius of curvature than
conventional crowning. The contact area is larger, thus reducing the unit
stress.
Note:

Lovejoy / Sier-Bath produces the Vari-Crown tooth form by a generating


method maintaining the necessary characteristics for conjugate tooth action,
which are:
1. Constant normal base pitch at any position on the crowned teeth.
2. Correct pressure angle matching of the normal to the curved surface and
the sleeve surface at any position of misalignment.

Less Backlash
The tooth design requires less backlash for a given angle of misalignment
than the conventional or circular arc crown. In many applications this is a
desirable feature in a gear tooth coupling.

N 1 indicates: Hertzs study of contact stresses of curved surfaces.

125

G-11

Some manufacturers use a conventionally crowned hub tooth known


by various trade names. Regardless of the nomenclature, however, the
contour of the tooth is a segment of an arc. Under all operating conditions,
equal or similar contact areas between the hub teeth and the sleeve teeth
exist.

Factors Affecting Selection
The following is a list of the information necessary to assist in making a coupling
selection. Not all of these items will come into play in all selection processes. These
items include, but are not limited to:
Application related:
s Application details
s Type of motor and driven equipment
s Motor horsepower or KW
s Operating/coupling speed
s Shaft sizes and separation

Steps In Selecting A Gear Coupling


Refer to the gear coupling specifications charts displayed with each type of coupling
throughout the Gear Coupling Products section of this catalog. The pictures and charts
provide visualization, specifications, and dimensional data for Lovejoys wide range of gear
coupling products. Typically start with an F Type flanged gear coupling (page G-34) or a C
Type continuous sleeve gear coupling (page G-16) and proceed from there.

Step 1: Review the gear coupling series and type as selected to ensure the selection
meets application requirements.
Step 2: Determine the nominal application torque in inlbs by using the following
formula:
Application Torque ( inlb ) = (HP x 63025)
RPM
or

Nm = (KW x 9550)
RPM

Step 3: Review the Application Service Factor chart for the service factor number
associated with the application where this coupling will be used. Multiply the
application torque by the application service factor to determine the total
torque required for the coupling selection.
Step 4: Compare the required total torque value with the nominal torque capacity
listed in the Gear Coupling Selection chart for the desired coupling type.
Step 5: Check that the maximum bore size and the maximum RPM of the coupling
type selected to ensure the coupling will meet these application requirements.
Step 6: Note any special requirements including the BSE dimension for floating shaft
and spacer types, shear pin torque, slide coupling details, mill motor tapered
shaft data, and any other pertinent information.
Consult with Lovejoy Technical support or Engineering for any unique application
concerns.

Selection Example (Flanged Gear Coupling)


Application Data: This sample application calls for a coupling to connect the output
side of a reducer gearbox to a dredge pump. There is a 400 HP electric motor,
running at 3,600 RPM driving the gearbox which has a 10:1 speed reduction. The
gearbox has a 6 inch diameter shaft, the pump has a 6-1/2 inch diameter shaft. There
is an angular misalignment potential of slightly more than 1.

Please note that any speed decrease at the reducer (gear box) will cause an
increase in the application torque.
Application Torque ( in-lbs ) =
(HP x 63025) = (400 x 63025) = 70,028 in-lbs
RPM
360

Step 1: Since C Type gear couplings are only capable of 1/2 misalignment per flex
plane, the F Type coupling is selected. The F Type coupling is capable of
accommodating 1-1/2 per flex plane. Note, it is highly recommended that
couplings are installed at no more than 20% of the allowable misalignment
since the alignment often changes during operation.

Selection Torque = Application Torque x Service Factor =


70,028 x 2.0 = 140,056 in-lbs
An F 3.5 coupling is rated at 151,200 in-lbs and could easily accommodate
the torque requirement, however, to accommodate the 6-1/2 inch pump
shaft diameter the selection of an F 5E size coupling will be necessary.
The F 5 coupling is rated at 434,700 in-lbs and may seem to be too
large or overrated for this application, but the larger size is necessary to
accommodate the shaft size.

Step 2: Refer to page G-34 and G-35 for Flanged series (F Type) double
engagement, or flex-flex, coupling information. The bore size and torque
should be addressed interactively when selecting a coupling size.
Step 3: The application service factor can be found on page G-13. Application
service factors are multipliers assigned to assorted applications for the
purpose of guiding the coupling selection process to a torque rating that will
prevent premature failure caused by the characteristics of that application.
For this sample application, note that the service factor for a dredge pump
application is 2.0.
Step 4: Calculate the torque requirements for the application using the formula:
Design Torque ( inlbs ) = HP x 63025
RPM
or

Nm = (KW x 9550)
RPM
Selection Torque = Application Torque x Service Factor
In this example, a gearbox is in use that reduces the operating speed
where the coupling is being used from 3,600 RPM on the input side to 360
RPM on the gearbox output side.

G-12

Step 5: Confirm that the RPM is within range specified for the selected coupling. The chart
shows the F 5 has a 2,500 RPM maximum speed and this will accommodate the
360 RPM speed requirement on the output side of the gearbox.
Step 6: Please refer to the coupling specifications on page G-34 and G-35. Note
that F 5E couplings are manufactured with interference fits and exposed
bolts as standard. When contacting your sales representative, the
description for this coupling would be an F 5E gear coupling and include the
bore size, keyway information, and shaft separation. Also, provide a list of
any requirements that might supersede the coupling defaults.
Special Note: If the shaft separation is greater than specified in the chart on Page
G-35, refer to the Floating shaft or Spacer style couplings on pages G-39 or G-55. If
the desired shaft separation, or BSE, is not listed, contact Lovejoy Technical Support
for assistance.
Please refer to the Lovejoy website for installation instructions and lubrication
requirements for gear couplings.

CFS Type Floating Shaft Coupling

The CFS Type coupling consists of two flex-rigid (CFR) couplings


with a shaft between them. Normally the driver and driven ends
are rigid while the two center hubs connected by the center shaft
are flexible. These hubs can be reversed if necessary without
sacrificing ease of installation or disassembly.

Continuous Sleeve
Overview
Lovejoy / Sier-Bath Continuous Sleeve Gear Couplings
Vertical Floating Shaft Type

The upper coupling is a Standard Vertical Type coupling. The


lower coupling has a hardened crowned button inserted in the
plate of the lower hub and a hardened flat button inserted in
the plate of the upper hub. The entire floating assembly rests
on these two buttons which carry the weight of the floating
assembly thus maintaining the spacing between the two lower
hubs allowing for flexibility. The hubs on the floating shaft are
flexible and the hubs of the driver and driven shafts are rigid.

Brakedrum Type

Brake Disc Type

Two different designs of brakedrum couplings are illustrated. One


shows the brakedrum as an intergal part of the sleeve and the
two hybs are standard. The other design utilizes one standard
hub and a standard sleeve with the brakedrum as part of a
special hub.

Continuous Sleeve
Overview
Lovejoy / Sier-Bath Continuous Sleeve Gear Couplings

Sliding Hub Type


The sleeve is longer than standard and is designed to allow
for a predetermined amount of axial travel on one shaft. The
short hub is secured to the sleeve by means of a spacer
washer and snap ring which prevents travel. This type is also
manufactured to allow for travel of both hubs in the sleeve.
This coupling is also available with a rigid type short hub.

Jordan Type
Used on Jordan machines and refiners, this design is similar
to the Sliding Hub Type coupling except the long hub is split
and secured to the shaft with a bolt. This permits for quick
axial adjustment of the Jordan shafts in the hub.

Continuous Lubricated Type


This coupling is adapted from our Standard Type coupling,
except the standard seals have been replaced with the special
spacer washers. These washers have a snug fit in the sleeve
with sufficient clearance on the hub OD to allow for injection of
a continuous stream of lubricant.

Flanged Sleeve
Overview
Lovejoy / Sier-Bath Flanged Sleeve Gear Couplings

Limited End Float Spacer Type

The addition of plates restricts axial travel to the drive or driven


shaft. The spacer makes it possible to remove the hubs from either
shaft without disturbing the connected units.

Vertical Floating Shaft Type


The lower coupling has a hardened crowned
button inserted in the plate of the lower hub.
The entire floating assembly rest on the
button. Optional construction of the upper
coupling would be a rigid hub on the floating
shaft with a flex half on the top.

Vertical Type
This coupling has the same horsepower, RPM and misalignment
capabilities as the standard couplings of corresponding sizes. A
plate with a hardened crowned button rests on the lower shaft
which supports the weight of the sleeve.

Jordan Type
Used on Jordan machines and refiners, this design is similar to the
slide type coupling except the long hub is split and secured to the
shaft with a bolt clamp. This permits quick axial adjustment of the
Jordan shafts i this hub.

Insulated Type
Use of a non-metallic material between flanges and around the
bolts prevents any stray currents from one shaft to the other.

Flanged Sleeve
Overview
Lovejoy / Sier-Bath Flanged Sleeve Gear Couplings

Engineered Shear Pin Type

Brakewheel and Brake Disc Type

Shear pin couplings are primarily used to limit transmitted torque to a


redetermined load. THis in turn disconnectes the driver and driven shafts
if torque exceeds the specified limits. They are especially suited to protect
equipment when jams occur. Components are re-useable after pins shear.
The coupling will retain lubricant for a short period to allow equipment to be
shut down.

Replaceable brakewheel and brake disc piloted on the outside diameter


of a standard sleeve and/or rigid hub. Offers a choice of applying braking
effort to the load or driving motor.

Double Engagement Half Gear Type

Rigid Alloy Steel FARR Type

Both internal and external teeth in a single sleeve. Can be bolted


to a rotating flywheel, shaft or drum to connect driver or driven
machine with a shaft extension. This coupling has the same
features, ratings and misalignment capability as the standard group
of couplings.

Male/Female piloted rigid coupling coupling with keeper plates.


This coupling is used when a rigid connection is required between
the low speed shaft of a gearbox and the head shaft of a conveyor,
bucket elevator, mixer or any overhung or suspended load.

Gear
Coupling Grease
Why Coupling Grease?

Adequate lubrication is essential for satisfactory gear coupling


operation. Lovejoy Gear Coupling Grease is specifically
designed for gear coupling applications to increase coupling
life while drastically reducing maintenance time. Its high
viscosity base oil and tackifier combine to keep the grease in
place and prevent separation and it is in complete compliance
with NSI/AGMA 9001-B97 lubrication recommendations.
Lovejoy Coupling Grease is dark brown in color and
manufactured with a lithium soap/polymer thickener, which
has superior resistance to oil separation when subjected to
high centrifugal forces normally found in couplings. Bearing
or general purpose greases tend to separate and lose
effectiveness due to high centrifugal forces on the various
ingredients at high rotational speeds. These high centrifugal
forces encountered in couplings separate the base oil from
the thickeners. Heavy thickeners, which have no lubrication
qualities, accumulate in the gear tooth mesh area resulting
in premature coupling failure. Lovejoy Gear Coupling Grease
is designed to highly resistant to centrifugal separation of the
oil and thickener, which allows the lubricant to be used for a
relatively long period of time.
One of the secrets to the success of Lovejoy Gear Coupling
Grease is the variable consistency throughout the working
cycle of the application. The consistency of our gear coupling
grease changes with the operating conditions. Working of the
lubricant under actual service conditions causes the grease
to become semi-fluid, functionally solash lubricating the wear
surfaces of the coupling. As the grease cools, it returns to the
original consistency, thereby preventing leakage.
