  • Patent number: 11359673
    Abstract: A package of laminations includes a plurality of lamella segments, which are arranged in layers and embodied to be connected together as ring segments. Each of the lamella segments has a plurality of cutouts and at least one of the lamella segments has at least three cutouts. The lamella segments are interconnected via sleeves. A method for manufacturing a package of laminations, a multi-plate coupling employing the package of laminations and an industrial application using the package of laminations are also described.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20160091029
    Abstract: An electrically insulating overload coupling for a wind turbine generator includes a gear-side or generator-side hub having an axially oriented ring flange. A pipe made of an electrically insulating material and having an axial section with an annular circumferential sliding surface rests directly on a corresponding sliding surface of the ring flange, so that the pipe is rotatable in a torque-dependent manner in relation to the ring flange.

  • Publication number: 20040105717
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a shaft-hub connection having an attachment flange and a clamping element, particularly a clamping ring, attachable thereto, by means of which the shaft end assigned to the attachment flange may be friction-locked to the attachment flange, with an interposed bushing which receives a slip torque. The present invention is based on the object of refining a device of the type initially cited in such a way that the lifetime of the attached components in the drivetrain is increased. This object is achieved according to the present invention in that the bushing is designed in multiple parts in the axial direction.

  • Patent number: 6471594
    Abstract: A flexible all-steel shaft coupling includes two connecting flanges (1, 2) and an intermediate piece (3, 3′) arranged between the connecting flanges, with a disk ring (4, 5) being arranged between each of the two connecting flanges and the intermediate piece; said disk ring being connected alternately to the respective connecting flange and the intermediate piece, by means of circumferentially-distributed studs (6, 7, 7′) and tension sleeves (8, 9), each comprising a radially protruding end stop, (13, 14), as well as spacer rings (10) held on the tension sleeves, so that the connecting flanges are interconnected so as to be torsionally rigid but with angular movement and axial movement; with each of the studs (6) connected to the connecting flanges being associated with only a single tension sleeve.
