Abstract

Motors will often contain many different gears and connecting shafts. A common method of power transfer is the Lovejoy coupling. The Lovejoy coupling transfers power and reduces vibration in the system to protect other components. The coupling has three parts: two end pieces and a middle “jaw”. The type of jaw determines the amount of vibration in the system. In this skill the maintenance of Lovejoy couplings will be discussed.
