ANNULAR CLAMPING MEMBER

Abstract: An annular clamping member adapted for example to clamp a gear or a pulley to a plain shaft, is provided with a ring of alternately arranged primary and secondary sections (1 and 2) mutually interconnected by means of inclined ring portions (5) which by a forced mutual displacement of the primary and secondary sections are forced to amend their inclination whereby an increase or diminishing of the diameters of the clamping member is obtained. Such a clamping member may for example be used for clamping a transmission element exactly coaxially to a shaft and may a.o. be formed as a hub of such a transmission element.

Description: ANNULAR CLAMPING MEMBER. TECHNICAL FIELD. This invention relates to an annular clamping member adapted for exam¬ ple firmly to embrace a shaft or after distension firmly to abut an in¬ ner annular surface, and having a circumferential length changeable by mutual axial displacement of member parts evenly distributed alternate¬ ly to two opposite radial faces in opposite directions away from their positions when the clamping member is uninfluenced. BACKGROUND ART. A clamping member of this type is known for example from the Russian patent speification No. ' 826,118. The clamping member herein treated consists of a flat, relatively thin spring ring comprising, alternately on its two faces, evenly distributed protruding parts, and is adapted to be inserted between an end face of an element arranged on a shaft and an abutment ring axially displaceable towards said end face. Such a displacement of the abutment ring will result in the protruding parts being presed axially in opposite directions, whereby the ring is given a zigzag shape causing a reduction of its circumferential length and, consequently, of its inner and outer diameters, thus causing the ring to lock upon the shaft. For attainment .of a sufficiently great reduction of the inner diameter, it is necessary, however, even if only a reduction of the diameter with a fraction of mm is wanted, to subject the ring to an axial deformation of many times its thickness, since the ring portions slanting relative to radial planes and formed owing to the deformation have to form an angle to the radial planes of between 10° and 15°. Such a strong deformation makes great demands to the material of the spring ring since remaining deformations have to be avoided if the radial pressures against the shaft obtained by the deformation have to be sustained. Therefore, the ring has to be rela¬ tively thin, but owing hereto it is limited how great radial pressures against the shaft it is possible to obtain, since owing to said pres¬ sures the elastic deformations of the ring material will again reduce the pressures. - Therefore, such a clamping member is fitted only for use in small machineries wherein only minor torques have to be trans¬ mitted. DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION. The annular clamping member according to the present invention is cha¬ racteristic thereby, that it comprises two sets of sections, primary and secondary sections, alternately arranged at its two opposite, in the axial direction facing ends, each of which sections is intercon¬ nected with the two adjacent sections of the other set by means o f ring portions slanting relative to radial planes, the slope of which being changeable by a forced axial displacement αf the two sets of sections relative to each other. Owing to the slanting of the ring portions relative to the axial direction, provided the angle with the radial planes is greater than 15°, preferably between 20° and 45°, even a small mutual axial displacement of the two sets of segments will result in a relatively great amendment of the circumferential length of the inner ad well as of the outer periphery of the clamping member. Further, it is possible to obtain a diameter reduction, for example for use by the clamping of the member onto a shaft, as well as a diameter increase, for example for use by the fixing of the member within a hub bore, since a diameter reduction is obtained, when the sections of the two sets are drawn in opposite directions, and a diameter increase is obtained in case the two sets of sections are urged against eachother. Further, owing to the unavoidable deformations of the parts being only small, no greater demands to the yelding ability of the material used may be made, wherefore the clamping members may be given a relatively great axial dimension and/or be made from relatively thick sheet material, causing that by the deformation quite great radial contact presures between the clamping member and a shaft or a surrounding wall may be obtained, ensuring useability of the clamping member even in case great torques having to be transferred. Still further, the clamping member can be made from so to say any solid material, thus even from wood and cast iron. A further advantage of the clamping member according to the present in¬ vention is, that it may be given a relatively small thickness and thus a small outer diameter compared with the center opening. Therefore, the clamping member is well suited to supplement the clamping members described for example in the International Publication No. WO 82/00325. Even the clamping member described therein ensures, contrary to known clamping members consisting of a slotted bushing having a conical outer and/or inner face or of two intermeshing such bushings, an exactly concentric fastening to a shaft by an axial pressing towards each other of discs provided with a truncated portion, whereby the inner diameter of the discs is reduced and their outer diameter enlarged. These clamping member show, however, an outer diameter that is relatively great compared with the inner diameter, wherefore in some cases such clamping members are less applicable, whereas a clamping member according to the present invention will be well suited. A not negligible advantage of a clamping member according to the pre¬ sent invention consists therein that, as mentioned above, it can be brought to expand as well as to contract. This causes for example, that a clamping member having a small interference to a shaft may be brought at first to expand so that nevertheless easily it can be ap¬ plied to a shaft and, thereafter, by reversed influence on the sections forcibly to squeeze the shaft. This possibility may be of great importance in practice. A corresponding effect has hitherto not been obtainable by clamping members adapted to secure an element to a shaft. Further the clamping member may be embodied as defined in claim 2, whe¬ reby a uniform influence of the ring portions over the whole axial length of the clamping member can be ensured and, consequently, a uni- form reduction (or increase) of the diameter over the whole length of the member. Besides, advantageously the clamping member may be embodied as defined in claim 3, so that an allready existing plane radial surface on an- other element cooperating with the clamping member may be used as an abutment member for the clamping member during the deformation thereof. However, often appropriately the clamping member may be embodied as de¬ fined in claim 4, so that all sections have an end face situated in the same radial plane which often may be an advantage of manufacture. In the last said case the design may still further be as defined in claim 5 so that one and the same abutment member may be used for the expansion as well as for the narrowing of the clamping member, among others for use in the above said case, where a clamping member having a small tolerance with certainty easily may be pushed in over a shaft and be positioned in the correct position thereon and then forcibly be clamped to the shaft. Besides, in many cases it may be expedient if the clamping member is also formed as defined in claim 6, a form that is of special advantage in case two clamping members together has to serve as a shaft-coupling. As previously mentioned, a clamping member according to this invention will provide the same change of its inner as of its outer diameter. In many cases it may be advantageous, however, if the clamping member may be brought simultaneously to exert inwardly as well as outwardly directed clamping forces, and according to the present invention this may be attained by the shape stated in claim 7. Such a clamping member may for example be used for securing to a shaft of a transmission member having a conical hub bore. Often it is pre¬ ferred, however, in naves or hubs to use circular cylindrical hub bo¬ res, but even for such use expediently the effect o conical abutment faces may be used, namely provided the form further is as stated in claim 8. Are the two sets of sections displaced so, that the sections of the inner clamping member are influenced for displacement in direc¬ tion out of the outer clamping member the latter will try to expand, whereas the inner one will try to contract. Besides owing to the adjoining faces of the two members being conical the two clamping members will adapt one to another so that, if the one clamping member is pressed so firmly against the element meshing therewith that it is more difficult to displace it relative thereto than to displace the IJU E _OJYIPI other clamping member relative to the- element meshing therewith, it will be the sections at the relevant end of the last said member which displace themselves relative to the element cooperating therewith, so that a uniform clamping of the double clamping member to both the elements cooperating therewith is ensured simultaneously with an exact concentric clamping of the two elements being ensured. The necessary clamping appliances may for example be arranged in the manner appearing from claim 9 or more advantageous, although in manu- facture more expensive, in the manner appearing from claim 10.

DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS. The clamping member shown in Figs 1 and 2 comprises an annular ring of alternately at the two ends of the member arranged primary sections 1 and secondary sections 2 resp. and is adapted to be fastened to a plain shaft 3. Each section 1 and 2 is provided with an axial projection 4 and 5 resp. the end faces 6 and 7 resp. of which are flushing with the end faces 8 and 9 resp. of the other set of sections. The sections 2 with appertaining projections 5 are united with spokes 10 of a transmission member 11, here shown as a V-belt pulley. Thus the clamping member constitutes a hub of this transmission member. Each section 1 or 2 of the one set is connected to the two adjacent sections of the other set by intermediate ring portions 12 forming op¬ posite facing angles of between 15 and 60°, preferably of between 20 and 45°, with radial planes, and their transissions to the sections 1 and 2 extend preferably radially whereas the ring portions themselves owing hereto extend in spiral or helical around the axis of the clam¬ ping member. The cJLamping member cooperates with an abutment member 13 surrounding the shaft and in the embodiment shown shaped as a simple ring plate. The abutment member 13, is shown arranged outside the upwards facing end faces 6 and 9 of the clamping member and it is on its underside provided with spacers 14, which, depending on the angle position of the plate relative to the clamping member, may abut either the end faces 9 of the secondary sections 2 or the upwards facing end faces 6 of the projections 4. Between the spacers 14 the plate 13 is provided with plain holes • through which bolts 15 may be screwed into either threated holes 16 in the secondary sections 2 or in threaded holes 17 in the projections 4 of the primary sections 1. O P In the drawing the spacers 14 abut the end faces 6 of the projections 4, and the bolts 15 are screwed into the threaded holes 16 in the se¬ condary sections 2. Therefore, when the bolts 15 are thigthened the secondary sections 2 will be influenced for axial displacement in di¬ rection away from the primary sections 1, whereby the inclination of the ring portions 12 will be increased resulting in a reduction of the spaces between- each two neighbour sections 1 and 2 and thereby in an immovable clamping of the clamping member and, consequently, of the transmission member 11 to the shaft 3. In case, however, the abutment member 13 is rotated about the shaft 3 in such a degree that its spacers abut the end faces 9 of the secondary sections 2 and the bolts 15 being brought into engagement with the threaded holes 17 in the projections 4, the appertaining primary section 1 will be influenced for displacement in direction of the se¬ condary sections 2, thus causing the inclination of the ring portions 12 to diminish, whereby the inner as well as the outer diameter of the clamping member are increased. This may be of importance in case com¬ pared with the diameter of the shaft 3 the inner diameter of the cla - ping member has only a minimal interference or none at all, since owing to the said increase of the diameters never the less it will be easy to insert the clamping member on the shaft and to displace it to the exact wanted position. This being reached, the bolts 15 may be removed and the abutment member rotated until its spacers are positioned opposite to the projections 4, whereafter a tightening of the bolts will result in a diminishing of the inner diameter of the clamping member and ensure its clamping to the shaft 3. It has to be observed that in case the possibility of increasing the diameters of the clamping member is not demanded, the projections 4 may be given a greater length so that an abutment member without spacers always will abut the end faces 6 of the projections 4 and be kept in distance from the secondary sections 9, which then do not need to be provided with threaded holes. In stead αf spacers 14 fastened to the abutment member 13 also separate spacers may be used arranged where desireable. Finally it has to be observed that appropriately the clamping member may be shaped in such a manner that its two ends are identical so that an orientation of the clamping member in a certain direction is unne¬ cessary. The above said possibility of increasing the diameters of the clamping member also incur that the member may be brought to expand against the inner side of a pipe or another surrounding cylinder surface, for exam¬ ple a hub bore. The clamping member may also be amended in many other ways. Thus it may be polygonale in stead of cylindrical, and its inner or outer side may be conical in stead of circular cylindrical. Besides, the dimen¬ sions, including the width and axial length of the sections 1 and 2 and the thickness of the slanting ring portions 12, may be adapted to the actual use of the clamping member, and the inner and outer sides of these ring portions have not to merge with the cylindrical or conical faces defined by the sections 1 and 2. Fig. 3 shows a double clamping member comprising two symmetrical arran¬ ged clamping members each based on the same principles as the clamping members of Figs. 1 and 2 but made by bending of relatively thick plate material. Each plate ring has alternately situated mainly plane wave crests 201 and wave troughs 202, corresponding to the primary and se¬ condary sections 1 and 2 in Figs. 1 and 2,' and mutually interconnected by inclined ring portions 212. At the outer circumfεrance of the mem¬ ber the wave crests 201 are coherent with webs 18 extending downwards and upwards respectively to the center or symmetriplane of the clamping member and abutting each other in this plane so that the rings serve as abuttement members for each other. The two rings are hold together by means of bolts 215 corresponding to the bolts 15 in Figs. 1 and 2. Such a double clamping member may forexample be used for coupling together two shaft ends and is by such use able to neutralize possible minor differences of the diameters of the two shafts. Provided the OMPI webs 18 are fastened to each other at their joining faces even greater diameter differences may be neutralized simultaneous with the two shaft ends being coaxially secured. Fig. 4 shows a clamping member corresponding to a single one of the two cooperating members shown in Fig. 3 though the webs 18 being left out. In return a projection 204 extends axially from each wave crest and has its end situated outside the commen plane at the end faces of the wave troughs 202. These projections 204 abut a radial end wall of an element 19, for example a hub, that has to be secured to the shaft 3 and to which the clamping member is connected by means of bolts 215 carried through plain holes in the wave troughs 202 and screwed into threaded holes in the said wall of the -element 19. Fig. 5 shows how a double clamping member mainly consisting of two clamping members of the type shown in Figs. 1 and 2, may be used for clamping of an element 11, for example a transmission element, to the clamping member as well as to clamp the latter to a shaft 3. The clam¬ ping member shown lowest in the drawing is inserted in for example a hub bore and is made in the same manner as the clamping member accor¬ ding to Figs. 1 and 2, though the primary sections 1 and the appertai¬ ning projecions 4 are provided with through axial plain holes for the bolts 15 the threaded parts of which are screwn into threaded holes in the primary sections 1 of the upper clamping member, the end faces 8 of which sections are somewhat withdrawn relative to the end faces 7 of the projections 5 of the secondary sections 2. These last said end faces 7 abut the end faces 9 of the secondary sections 2 of the lower- clamping member. When the bolts 15 are tightened the upper clamping member will be contracted and clamped to the shaft 3 whereas the lower clamping member will be expanded and thereby clamped within the hub bo¬ re of the element 11. The two clamping members may also be made in one single piece. Fig. 6 shows how two clamping members of the type shown in Fig. 4 may be used for clamping of for example a transmission element lϊ onto a shaft 3 by being arranged within a hub bore. For this purpose the abutment member which in Fig. 4 is constituted by a hub end wall, is substituted by conical engagement faces 20 for the clamping member, se- ing that the inner circumferential face of the hub bore is constituted by two opposite directed truncated cone faces having a small apex angle, whereas the outer circumferential faces of the two clamping members are correspondingly conical. Hereby it may be ensured that by tightening of the bolts 215 interconnecting the wave troughs 202 the- two clamping members will be contracted about the shaft 3 and wedged into the hub bore so that the parts are interconnected immovably rela- tive to each other. Fig. 7 shows schematically a clamping member of the type shown in Fig. 4 but shaped in such a manner that sinultaneously It may clamp inward¬ ly, for example about a shaft, and outwardly, for example against the inner wall of a hub. In this embodiment the wave crests 201 and the adjoining inclined ring portions 212 are punched and pressed out from a disc 21 so that opposite said parts the said disc is provided with an opening 22, whereas the disc portions between these openings constitute the wave troughs or secondary sections 202. Behind the disc 21 an abutment member 13 is arranged abutting the wave troughs 202 but only partly covering the openings 21. This abutment member 13 may be secured to the disc 21 by means of bolts 23 screwed into the wave troughs. Through threaded holes 217 in the wavecrests 201 not shown bolts may be screwed against the abutment member 13, whereby the wave crests 201 may be forced in direction away from the abutment member. The disc 21, that is made from an elastic material and mainly is cir¬ cular cylindrical, but opposite to the wave troughs 202 it is provided with outer flattenings 33. By the said pressing of the wave crests 201 away from the abutment member the disc 21 will expand owing to the openings. 22 and may, consequently, be brought firmly to contact a sur¬ rounding wall, whereas the inner part of the disc 21 by the said pressing will be given a reduced inner diameter. Fig. 8 shows a clamping member of the same type as that shown in Figs. 1 and 2, but provided with a conical outer side fitting into an in- £ΛJ RE~ _Q wardly conical and outwardly cylindrical intermediate bushing 24 that in a manner known per se, but not shown, is provided with from both ends in between each other extending slots having a length minor than the width of the bushing. The bushing, that consequently is elastic, is adapted to be inserted in a hub bore of a transmission element (not shown). The clamping member itself consists of alternating arranged sections 1 and 2 and inclined ring portions inbetween. A disc like abutment member 13 abuts the thick end of the bushing 24 and is provi¬ ded with bolts 15 screwn into the secondary sections 2 so that by tightening of said bolts these sections 2 are drawn in direction of the abutment member 13. This effect is counteracted, however, by the mutually meshing conical faces of the bushing and the clamping member. Thus as, explained above, by the tightening of the bolts the clamping member will be brought simultaneously to clamp the shaft 3 and to press outwards against the bushing 24, thus causing also the latter to expand and being squeezed in the hub bore. Figs. 9 and 10 show an embodiment of a double clamping member of this invention shaped to form a spacer bushing to be inserted between a shaft 3 and the inner side of a hub bore (not shown). This spacer bushing comprises two clamping members 25 and 26 of the type shown in Fig. 1, of which the innermost one 25 is provided with a conical outer side, whereas the outer one is provided with a cylindrical outer side and a conical inner side of the same magnitude and with the same coni- city as the outer side of the inner member 25. For single parts of the two members 25 and 26 are used the same reference numbers as used in Fig. 1 but having added thereto as far as features of the member 25 is concerned: " ' " and as far as the member 26 is concerned: " •' ". The two members are mutually arranged in such a manner that corresponding parts of the two members are situated opposite each other, that is that the sections 1' of the inner member 25 are situated opposite the sections l' 1 of the outer member 26, and the same is the case for the sections 2' and 2''. The projections 5' of the secondary sections 25' of the inner clamping member 25 are provided with sidewardly extending eyes 25 not extending outside the outer side of the clamping member 26 and arranged opposite the inner ends of the secondary sections 2'* of the outer clamping member 26, seing that these sections are not provi¬ ded with projections corresponding to the projections 5. The eyes 27 are provided with axially extending plain bolt holes for receiving bolts 28 screwed into threaded holes 16'' in the secondary sections 2' ' of the outer clamping member. When the bolts 28 are tightened, the secondary sections 2' ' of the ou¬ ter clamping member 26 will be drawn in direction of the appertaining primary sections l' 1 , so that the outer clamping member will expand, but, simultaneously, the primary sections 1' of the inner clamping mem¬ ber 25 will be drawn in direction of the corresponding secondary sec¬ tions 2', so that the inner clamping member is contracted and clamped to the shaft 3. The expansion of the outer clamping member 26 results in this clamping member being fixed within the hub bore (not shown) wherein the double clamping member has been inserted. A cross section of a corresponding, a spacer bushing forming double clamping member is shown in Fig. 11. In this embodiment, however, each clamping member 25 and 26 is at each end provided with three sections 1 and 2 only, whereas in the embodiment shown in Figs. 9 and 10 there are six sections at each end. In the embodiment shown in Fig. 11, at the transsission between the abutting sections 2' and 2' ' there is from the adjoining end face bored a hole 29,30 arranged partly in the one and partly in the other of the two clamping members. The part 29 of the hole situated in the section 2' ' is plain, whereas the part 30 thereof situated in the section 2' is threaded and has a length somewhat greater than the length of part 29. When bolts are screwed into these holes and the end of such a bolt reaches the bottom of the corresponding hole part 29 the sections 2 1 ' will be pushed to the left in the drawing whereby the outer clamping member 26 will expand simultaneously with the sections 2' being drawn to the right, whereby the inner clamping member 25 will contract. Further from the same end face as the holes 29,30 at the transsission between the extensions 4 r and 4' ' of the sections there is made holes 31,32, but in connection with these holes it is the parts 31 thereof URϋ. _OMPI situated in the. projections 4' of the inner clamping member which are plain whereas the parts 32 situated in the projections 4' ' are threaded and have a greater length than the hole part 31. The same bolts may be used for the two set of holes 29,30 and 31,32. This results therein that when the bushing formed has to be loosened from shaft and hub it is only necessary to screw the bolts out from the holes 29,30 and then to screw them into the holes 31,32, whereby the two clamping members 25 and 26 may be drawn from each other so that easily they may be detached.
