About Lovejoy 00062 Size C 1.5 Sleeve Component For

This Lovejoy C Type continuous sleeve is made of steel and is intended for use as a component of a Sier-Bath continuous sleeve gear coupling (not included). This sleeve is made of American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) 1045 steel for strength and durability, and a groove at each end of the sleeve allows a snap ring to secure the O-ring seal which retains the coupling lubricant. The sleeve teeth mesh with the hub teeth to allow for angular misalignment of up to 1.5 degrees per hub. The sleeve also accommodates parallel and axial misalignment of the attached shafts. Gear couplings, a type of flexible coupling, use gear teeth on hubs and sleeves to transmit torque and offset rotational misalignment, and are suitable for use in applications involving extended distances between shaft ends, such as metal rolling mills and paper mills. Flexible couplings are used to link two rotating shafts that are not aligned in order to transmit the rotational power, known as torque, from one shaft to the other. Most flexible couplings consist of two hubs and a middle assembly; each hub attaches to a shaft while the middle assembly flexes between the hubs to accommodate the misalignment of the two shafts. Shaft misalignments are generally either parallel or angular and cause complications to transmitting rotational power from one shaft to another in the form of stresses, loads, vibrations, and other forces, which vary from one type of misalignment to another. Flexible couplings are used in a broad range of applications, such as in motor vehicles, conveyors, escalators, agricultural, forestry and mining equipment, aeronautics, robotics and space exploration, among others. Lovejoy manufactures flexible couplings, universal joints, variable speed drives, and other transmission and mechanical power products. The company, founded in 1900, is headquartered in Downers Grove, IL.
