Tugihülss

A tugihülss, often translated as a support sleeve or bearing sleeve, is a mechanical component designed to provide reinforcement, support, or a bearing surface within a larger assembly. It typically takes the form of a cylindrical tube, though variations in shape and size exist depending on the specific application.

The primary function of a tugihülss is to distribute forces or loads more effectively. For example, it might be used to strengthen a shaft or rod that is subjected to bending or torsional stress. By encasing a portion of the shaft, the tugihülss increases its rigidity and resistance to deformation. In other instances, it serves as a wear-resistant surface for rotating or sliding parts. This allows for smoother operation and prolongs the life of the components that would otherwise experience friction and abrasion.

Tugihülssid can be manufactured from a variety of materials, including metals like steel, brass, or aluminum, as well as polymers or composite materials. The choice of material depends on factors such as the required strength, operating temperature, chemical resistance, and cost. They are often press-fit or shrink-fit onto the component they support, ensuring a secure and stable connection. Applications for tugihülssid are widespread, found in automotive components, industrial machinery, power tools, and various other mechanical systems where enhanced durability and operational efficiency are desired.
