MCL-I type plus-shaped elastic coupling(Q/YM 35015X-2018)

Jaw coupling and spider coupling are synonymous with plum shaped elastic coupling.

The MCL type is a plum-shaped elastic coupling with a braking wheel (the core is an integrated design of "transmission + braking + overload buffering", classified by the structure of the braking wheel as MCL - I (split type) and MCL - II (integral type), conforming to the GB/T 5272 - 2002 standard). The following is a detailed analysis of its structure and performance：
1. Core structure
Basic components： Active / Passive half coupling with protruding claws,plum-shaped elastic element (polyurethane / cast nylon), braking wheel (LMZ - I split assembly, MCL - II integrated with the half coupling), bolts, nuts, positioning pieces, etc.

Core force transmission and braking logic

Torque transmission： The protruding claws of the half coupling and the elastic element are radially pressed and meshed to transmit torque, and the deformation of the elastic element can compensate for the deviation of the shaft system.
Braking function： The braking wheel cooperates with the external brake to achieve rapid stopping or positioning of the equipment. MCL - II integral braking wheel has higher strength and is suitable for frequent braking conditions.
Assembly characteristics： The elastic element is installed between the protruding claws of the two half couplings, and the half coupling needs to be axially moved for replacement. - I (split type) and MCL - II (integral type), conform to the GB/T 5272 - 2002 standard.
