CARDAN SHAFTS
Cardan universal joints allow power to be transferred at larger angles than traditional flexible couplings. They can transmit power at up to a 15° offset angle depending on the application. Cardan shafts are available in a wide variety of torque capacities from 4.4 ft-lb (5.9 Nm) to 11,071,745 ft-lb. (15,009 Nm). There are many different styles of cardan shafts. The cross and bearing, ear and pin and Cornay joints are a few. Cross and bearing joints are the most common and use needle bearings to allow movement of the flange. Ear and pin joints, also known as pin and block joints, are simpler in design and are used for smaller applications. Cornay joints allow torque to be transmitted at high angles, even up to 90°. * Please contact The Rowland Company for technical information on Cornay joints. CONSTANT VELOCITY
Constant velocity (CV) joints use an inner race, outer race and balls to transmit torque. Joints can transmit power at up to a 30° angle depending on the application. There are two types of CV joints: disc and bell. Disc joints are used in industrial applications while bell joints are used in off-road vehicles. Joints can be sized to handle a wide range of torques from 169 ft-lb (229 Nm) to 29,525 ft-lb (40,027 Nm). * Please contact The Rowland Company for technical information on Bell joints. |
