Backstop Clutch
|
|
Backstop clutches are freewheeling devices that transmit torque in one direction. They prevent drives from backing up and keep driven systems such as inclined conveyors from going down.
|
| |
Freewheeling Clutch
|
|
Freewheeling clutches are unidirectional torque transmitters that spin freely in the direction opposite the intended drive rotation.
|
| |
Overrunning Clutch
|
|
Overrunning clutches are used as a safety mechanism. The drive element stops and the load winds down freely.
|
| |
Shear Torque Limiter
|
|
The torque limiter has mechanical fuses which shear at specified torque limits to prevent damage to the driveshaft, transmission, axle, or other drivetrain component.
|
| |
Slip Clutch / Disengagement Torque Limiter
|
|
Slip clutches or disengagement torque limiters have a threshold torque that causes them to disengage the drive in case of jamming or overload. They are primarily used for personnel safety and equipment protection.
|
| |
Specialty / Other
|
|
Other unlisted, specialty, or proprietary clutch designs or functions.

| |
Clutch Engagement
|
|
|
| |
Your choices are...
|
|
|
| |
Noncontact
|
|
Devices use a noncontact technology such as a magnetic field or eddy currents to provide engagement and drive.
|
| |
Friction
|
|
Friction between contact surfaces transmits power. This is the most common configuration.
|
| |
Toothed
|
|
Toothed contact surfaces transmit power without slipping. No heat is generated. Devices are engaged only when stopped or running at a slow speed (< 20 rpm).
|
| |
Wrap Spring
|
|
Torque is transmitted from input to output by a coiled spring that wraps around the output element. The device is disengaged when the spring is uncoiled via a control tang at its end.
|
| |
Oil Shear
|
|
Drive engagement is achieved by the viscous shear of transmission fluid between the device's plates.
|
| |
Plate / Disc
|
|
The torque level is controlled by compression springs which force plates together.
|
| |
Ball Detent
|
|
Ball detent is a slip mechanism in which, upon overload, balls ride up out of seats to overcome springs or air pressure engagement.
|
| |
Roller Detent
|
|
Rollers, held in place by springs, wedge between the inner and outer races to engage the clutch.
|
| |
Pawl Detent
|
|
Pawl detent is a slip clutch mechanism in which, upon overload, the pawl overcomes spring or air pressure engagement and rotates out of its detent.
|
| |
Sprag
|
|
Sprags are steel wedges that tip in one direction to wedge between inner and outer races. They can be configured with either the inner or outer race as the input or output. Too much torque makes the sprags tip so much that contact is not maintained. Often, sprag clutches can transmit more torque than other designs of slip or overrunning clutches.
|
| |
Other
|
|
Other unlisted, specialized, or proprietary clutch engagement mechanisms.

Your choices are...
|
|
|
| |
Adjustable Torque
|
|
Adjustable torque is used primarily for slip clutches and torque limiters. Users can adjust the torque at which the clutch disengages or slips.
|
| |
Zero Backlash
|
|
There is no play or backlash during the engagement of the load and no load disengagement during a direction reversal.
|
| |
Washdown Capable
|
|
The housing is rated for washdown cleaning.
|
| |
Bi-directional
|
|
Devices can be set-up to rotate in either direction.
|
| |
Automatic Re-engagement
|
|
The clutch re-engages the load when the torque drops to an acceptable level.
|
| |
Slip Indication
|
|
Slip indication can move a pin radially when an overload occurs, or send an electrical signal to the drive motor.
|
| |
Feedback
|
|
Feedback provides an electrical or electronic signal for monitoring parameters such as position, speed, torque, lockup, or slip status.
|
| |
Other
|
|
Other unlisted, specialized, or proprietary features.
