Selection and Design (Lock Belt Sprockets C)
Verification of the maximum transmission torque
Select Lock Belt Sprockets C Type according to the following procedure:
Calculate the maximum generated torque and the maximum generated thrust load by multiplying a service factor by the generated transmission capacity.
Max. Generated Torque Tmax
[SI units ]
Tmax (N・m) = 9550 × KW × SF n
[Gravity unit ]
Tmax (kgf・m) = 974 × KW × SF n
Max. Thrust Load Pmax
Pmax (N{kgf}) = Pax × SF
- KW:Transmission capacity kW
- SF:Service factor (Choose from the table below)
- n:Speed r/min
- Pax:Maximum thrust load N{kgf}
If the torque and thrust load are applied simultaneously, calculate the synthetic load MRmax using the following formula:
MRmax = (Tmax)2 + (Pmax × d/2000)2 N・m{kgf・m} d:Shaft diameter (mm)
Compare Tmax or MRmax value calculated above with the transmission torque Mt of the sleeve.
OK Mt ≧ Tmax or MRmax
NG Mt < Tmax or MRmax
Service factor SF
Load conditions | Service factor SF | |
---|---|---|
Smooth transmission with no impact | Small load inertia Inertia ratio of 1.0 or lower | 1.2~1.5 |
Transmission with mild impact | Medium load inertia Inertia ratio of 1.0 to 3.0 | 1.5~2.0 |
Load with major impact or forward and reverse rotation | Large load inertia Inertia ratio of 3.0 or higher | 2.0~5.0 |
Selection of the shaft
Use a shaft made of a material that satisfies the following formula:
δ0.2S ≧ 1.2 × P
δ0.2S:The yield point of the material used for the shaft (MPa) P:Shaft-side contact pressure (See below) (Mpa)
When a hollow shaft is used, use a shaft with an inner diameter dimension dB that satisfies the following formula:
dB ≦ d × δ0.2S - 2 × P δ0.2S
d:Shaft diameter (mm) δ0.2S:The yield point of the material used for the shaft (MPa)

Approximate mass
The approximate mass can be figured out by adding the clamp collar unit mass in the table to the mass of the standard belt sprocket.
