Experimental study on elastic engagement and friction-coupled transmission

Luohua Xu, Ping Huang

Abstract

A new type of mechanical transmission, elastic engagement and friction-coupled (EEFC) transmission, is studied. The surfaces of the transmission pairs consist of a large number of elastic clusters, through which power is transmitted from the driving part to the driven part. The experiments are carried out to test the performance of the EEFC transmission as clutch transmission and as belt transmission. The EEFC belt transmission is compared with a V-belt transmission.
