Introducing Truck Mixer Spare Parts - Cardan shaft!
What is a Cardan Shaft and Do You NeedOne?ardan shafts, also call driveshafts, originated in the automotive industry.The first appearance in the mid-19th century, the Cardan shaft appeared in Stover's newly issued 1861 patent on planing and matching machines, where the belt drive above the drive was replaced with a Cardan shaft. The second appearance of the Cardan shaft was in a patent for the Watkins and Bryson horse-drawn lawn mower, also in1861.A driveshaft in this context refers to the shaft that transmits power from the machine's wheels to the gear set.
Battles referred to the shaft that drives the locomotive and the driving truck as the Cardan shaft in 1891. And Stillman referred to the shaft that connects the crankshaft to the rear axle of his axle-driven bicycle as the Cardan shaft. In 1899, Bukey used the Cardan shaft to describe the shaft that transmits power from the wheels to the driven machinery via a universal joint. In the same year, Clark, in describing his Marine Velocipede, used the Cardan shaft to refer to the gear-driven shaft that transmits power to the propeller shaft through a universal joint. Crompton used the Cardan shaft to refer to the shaft between the transmission and the Cardan shaft on his steam-powered motor car.
The pioneering company in the automobile industry was Autocar,which was the first to use a Cardan shaft in a gasoline-powered car. This car was produced in 1901 and is now in the Smithsonian Institution's collection. For more on automotive Cardan shafts, see Wikipedia.
The Cardan shaft is composed of a shaft tube, a telescopic sleeve, and two cross joints. The telescopic sleeve can automatically adjust the change of the distance between the transmission and the drive axle. The cross joint is to ensure the change of the angle between the transmission output shaft and the drive axle input shaft and realize the equal angle speed transmission of the two shafts.
In high-speed heavy-duty power transmission, some Cardan shafts also have the role of cushioning, vibration damping, and improving the dynamic performance of the shaft system. The Cardan shaft is composed of two halves, which are connected to the main shaft and the driven shaft respectively. Most of the general power machines are coupled to the working machine with the help of Cardan shafts.
Cardan shafts are an important part of any truck mixer and our high quality spare parts are designed to ensure optimal performance and durability.
How can the Cardan Shaft help during the machine's running?
Cardan Shaft helps to transmit more power and torque when the machine is running, as well as cushioning, damping, and improving the dynamic performance of the shaft system.
In our traditional industry, transmission is usually carried out using drive belts or chains, which transmit torque with little torque, short working time and require frequent maintenance.
Consisting of a shaft tube, telescopic sleeve and two cross joints, our cardan shafts meet the stringent requirements of heavy-duty applications.
