Friction wheel

Power : TorquexRpm
 Friction wheel

 When the distance between the two axes is close,

the rotation of the main shaft is transmitted to the driven shaft by friction.
 Sliding occurs when the driven shaft is overloaded  Not easy to transmit large torque
 Good for continuously changing speed

 Velocity at the contact point

- D : Diameter of the wheel (mm)

 Width of friction wheel

Force

 Width
Force per length F  P
 If width is increased, contact pressure can be reduced
 At the same pressure, the larger width, the larger force can be generated
 Increased frictional coefficient can transmit larger torque

Grooved friction wheel
 Grooves on the surface of the friction can transmit more power
 Grooves increase frictional coefficient

 If (H0) is the power of spur friction wheel

Ex) : 2α=30˚, Frictional coefficient : μ=0.3  μ=0.54

 80% Transmit power increased
