Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent generation of frictional heat and to attain reliable operation at low price by providing a driving shaft on outer ring side and a driven shaft on shoe side of the concentric structure and pressing a ball disposed on the driving shaft side to be brought into contact with a recess portion on the surface of the driven shaft by a spring to interlock with light load. CONSTITUTION:A driving member 4 having an outer ring 7 is fixed to a driving shaft 1, and three shoes 8 brought into frictional engagement with the inner peripheral surface of the outer ring 7 are loosely fitted to a boss member 9 fixed to a driven shaft 11 by a groove 10 to move in the radial direction. The driven shaft 11 is engaged with a driving member 4 through a needle bearing 19, and provided with a recess portion 12 formed on the surface, where a ball 15 urged by a spring 14 is fitted. When the driven shaft 11 is stopped, the ball 15 comes off the recess portion 12, so that the driving shaft 1 can be rotated. Accordingly, when overload is applied to the driven shaft 11 during rotation, engagement of a clutch device 2 is released to prevent generation of friction heat, and reliable operation can be attained at low price in a simple structure suitable for mass-production.

Conventional technology Generally speaking, when an overload is applied to the driven part of a centrifugal clutch, the rotational speeds of the driven part and the driving part differ, causing slippage between the outer ring and the shoe. There was a risk of overheating due to friction and abnormal wear. For example, when a chainsaw used in an automatic branching machine is locked by a tree, etc., slipping occurs between the outer ring and shoe of the centrifugal clutch that transmits power to the saw, causing overheating and shortening the life of the centrifugal clutch. This causes the inconvenience that the length may become shorter.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide an overload prevention centrifugal clutch that prevents overheating due to slippage between the outer ring and the shoe during overload, and to improve rotational transmission of the centrifugal clutch. Means for solving the special problem characterized in that the method is reversed to that of the conventional centrifugal clutch, that is, the centrifugal clutch according to the present invention is provided with a drive shaft on the outside I) side of the centrifugal clutch device, and a drive shaft on the shoe side. Set up a driven shaft () and drive! It is equipped with an interlocking device that connects the IIl shaft and the driven shaft with a light load.

Effect: Therefore, when the drive shaft rotates, the outer ring fixed to the drive shaft rotates and the connection! When the driven shaft is rotated through the IIB neck and the rotation speed reaches a point where sufficient centrifugal force is applied to the shoe attached to the driven shaft to press the inner peripheral surface of the outer ring, the outer ring and the shoe are firmly connected. Even if the interlocking device does not operate, the rotational force of the drive shaft is reliably transmitted to the driven shaft. However, if the driven shaft is overloaded and decelerates or stops, sufficient centrifugal force will not be applied to the shoe to connect it to the outer ring, and the shoe will instantly separate from the inner circumferential surface of the outer ring, causing the outer ring and shoe to separate. No overheating due to friction. When the shoe separates from the outer ring, the interlocking VJ mechanism is activated, but since this interlocking device interlocks the drive shaft and driven shaft with a light load, the drive shaft rotates and the driven shaft stops. Even if it is installed, it does not generate enough heat to cause problems for the interlocking device.

The boss member 9 is fixed to the driven shaft 11 via a key 18 together with the sub-block 3, and the driving member 4 is fitted concentrically to the outside of the driven VJ shaft 11 via a needle bearing 19. A recess 12 is formed on the surface of the driven shaft 11, not shown in FIG.
A hole 13 is formed in a portion of the shaft 11 facing the recess 12, into which a spring 14 and a ball 15 are fitted.
It is adapted to be inserted into the recess 12 of 11 by engagement. Since this ball 15 is always urged in the direction of the recess 12 by the spring 14, when the drive member 4 is rotated by the drive shaft 1,
If the driven shaft 11 is rotated in the same direction by the engagement of the ball 15 and the recess 12, and the driven shaft 11 is stopped,
The ball 15 moves out of the recess 12 against the spring 14 and rolls around the follower @11. Therefore, the driving member 4 can rotate even when the driven shaft 11 is fixed. This device is connected! With the IIIj device, even if the shoe 8 is provided on the driven side, it can provide the function of a centrifugal clutch, and the driven @ 1
When an overload is applied to the driven shaft 11 and the number of rotations of the driven shaft 11 falls below a predetermined number of rotations, centrifugal force no longer acts on the shoe 8, and the engagement of the clutch device 2 instantly changes to W? By only lightly contacting the shoe 8 and the outer ring 7, generation of frictional heat caused by soaking between the outer ring and the shoe in the clutch engaged state can be prevented.

FIG. 3 shows an interlocking device as another embodiment, in which a convex at (16) is formed on the inner circumferential surface of the outer ring 7, and the shoe 8 also has a portion facing the inner circumferential surface of the outer ring on the inner circumferential surface. In this embodiment, when the outer ring 7 rotates M-, the lower shoe 8 moves toward the tip of the boss member 9 by its own weight, and the outer ring 7 moves toward the tip of the boss member 9. Since the outer end surface of the shoe 8 contacts the convex part 16 and receives the C resistance force, the drive shaft 1 and the driven shaft 11 can be interlocked with a light load, and the driven shaft 11 can be interlocked with a light load. The centrifugal clutch device 2 is actuated by rotating the shaft 11 and applying centrifugal force to the shoe 8.

Effects of the Invention The present invention uses the outer ring and shoe of the centrifugal clutch that connects the drive shaft and the driven shaft in the opposite way to the normal usage of conventional centrifugal clutches, allowing the interlocking of both shafts under light loads! By providing the L position, when an overload is applied to the slave II and the rotational speed decreases or stops, the engagement between the outer ring of the centrifugal clutch and the shoe is instantly released, and the outer ring and the shoe in the clutch engaged state are instantly disengaged. Since the generation of frictional heat due to shoe slipping is prevented, and the interlocking device can be provided with a simple structure, it is suitable for mass production, and has effects such as being able to operate reliably at low cost.
