ééndraagberenkoppeling

ééndraagberenkoppeling is a Dutch term that translates to "single-support bearing coupling." It refers to a specific type of mechanical coupling used in engineering applications, particularly in rotating machinery. This coupling is designed to connect two shafts and allow for a single point of support for one of the shafts.

The primary function of an ééndraagberenkoppeling is to transmit torque from a driving shaft to a driven shaft. However, its distinguishing feature is its ability to accommodate or compensate for certain misalignments and movements between the shafts. The "single-support" aspect implies that one of the connected shafts is supported by bearings, while the coupling itself might provide additional support or allow for controlled movement within that supported system.

These couplings are often employed in situations where precise alignment is difficult to maintain due to factors like thermal expansion, vibration, or operational loads. They are engineered to absorb or tolerate these deviations, preventing excessive stress on the shafts, bearings, and other connected components. The design can vary, but generally involves elements that permit angular or axial displacement.

Applications for ééndraagberenkoppeling can be found in various industries, including automotive, industrial machinery, and power generation. Their use contributes to the longevity and reliability of mechanical systems by managing the dynamic forces and positional inaccuracies that can arise during operation. Understanding the specific design and capabilities of an ééndraagberenkoppeling is crucial for engineers selecting appropriate components for their systems.
