The Application of Spline Connection in Industry
2024-05-11 15:451、 The working principle of spline connection
Spline connection is a bearing transmission method achieved through the combination of spline grooves and splines. The main principle is to adjust and process the spline groove on the shaft, and then install splines on the surface of the corresponding components to form an interference fit between two adjacent components, thereby achieving mechanical connection between the two components.
2、 Advantages and disadvantages of spline connections
The advantage of spline connection lies in its rigidity and precision, which can withstand large torque and deflection, and is suitable for high-speed and heavy load transmission. In addition, spline connection also has advantages such as convenient connection and easy loading and unloading, which can enable workers to connect and maintain products more conveniently and quickly.
However, spline connections also have some drawbacks, such as the difficulty in manufacturing splines and the need for a longer manufacturing cycle. In addition, interference fit requires strict tolerance control, otherwise it will affect the transmission accuracy.
3、 The Application of Spline Connection in Industry
Spline connection is mainly used for connecting components with interference fit. For example, in mechanical transmission, spline connections are often used to connect large load gears and their supporting shafts. In addition, spline connections are also used for the horizontal and vertical power transmission of machine tools, the drive system of large electric motors, and the connection of various difficult to disassemble immersion equipment, such as cooling systems, towers, and columns.
In modern industry, spline connection, as an important connection method, has an increasingly wide range of applications, especially in the reduction transmission of large heavy-duty gears. Its advantages are more obvious, not only having good performance indicators, but also wider adaptability and practicality.
