Power transmission
Bowl spindle
In addition to its primary role in the power
transmission system, the bowl spindle also
serves as:
•
pump for the closing water
•
supply pipe for the closing water
•
lubricator for spindle ball bearings.
Closing water is pumped through the hollow
spindle (B) to the discharge mechanism in the
bowl. For this purpose a pump sleeve (b4) is fitted
in the lower end.
The two spindle bearings are lubricated with oil
mist. An oil pump (b3) creates the oil mist, which
is sucked through the upper ball bearing by a fan
(b1). Oil is supplied via an oil filling device, which
also serves as a level indicator.
Two identical ring-shaped rubber buffers (b2)
support the top bearing housing. The buffers are
held in place by a buffer holder and form channels
through which the recirculated oil passes.
Belt drive
The bowl spindle is driven by a flat belt.
Adaptation to 50 or 60 Hz power supply is made
by selecting the motor belt pulley with the
appropriate diameter. A longer belt is needed for
the pulley for 50 Hz.
Correct tension is set by means of a spring-
loaded belt tightener.
Friction coupling
The friction coupling on the motor pulley ensures
gentle start-up and prevents overload of the
electric motor. Centrifugal force creates a torque
that acts on the pulley through the friction
elements.
