A pin bush coupling is a type of flexible coupling used to connect two shafts to transmit torque while accommodating slight misalignments and absorbing shocks and vibrations. It consists of two flanges, pins, and rubber or elastomeric bushes. Here's a breakdown of its components and features: Components: 1. Flanges: o Two flanges are attached to the shafts that need to be connected. o They are made of materials like cast iron, steel, or aluminium. 2. Pins: o These are cylindrical components that connect the two flanges. o Pins are often made of steel and fit into holes drilled in the flanges. 3. Bushes: o These are made of rubber, synthetic Elastomer, or polyurethane. o Bushes fit over the pins and serve as a buffer to reduce vibration and accommodate misalignment. Features: • Flexibility: The rubber bushes allow for minor angular, axial, and radial misalignments between the shafts. • Vibration Damping: The bushes absorb shocks and vibrations, protecting the connected machinery. • Simple Design: Easy to assemble and maintain. • Cost-Effective: Relatively inexpensive compared to other couplings. • Torque Transmission: Capable of transmitting moderate torque. Applications: Pin bush couplings are widely used in industries like: • Pumps • Compressors • Fans and blowers • Conveyors • General mechanical engineering systems Advantages: • Absorbs misalignment and vibration. • Easy to install and maintain. • Durable under normal operating conditions. Disadvantages: • Limited torque capacity compared to rigid couplings. • The bushes wear out over time and require replacement. • Not suitable for high-speed or heavy-duty applications.
