Brakes & Couplings

COX Torque-Limiting Permanent Magnet Coupling
COX is a limited-moment permanent magnet coupler (developed by Jiaohua in 2012): torque is transmitted across an air gap between a copper conductor rotor on the motor shaft and a permanent magnet rotor on the reducer side, with no mechanical connection. At start-up the gap opens from 5 to 8 mm so the motor accelerates almost unloaded; if the load jams, the gap opens to 35 mm and torque transmission stops, and the coupler returns to operation by itself once the cause is removed. Slip 1–4 %, no oil, bearings or power supply. 16 sizes, 11–710 kW at 1,500 rpm.

YOX Fluid Coupling with Jaw-Type Elastic Coupling
YOX is the basic version of the Jiaohua torque-limiting constant filling fluid coupling: the reducer shaft fits directly into the coupling bore, and the motor is connected through an ML jaw-type elastic half-coupling (GB 5272-85) with a spider. It is the shortest and most widely used arrangement. 19 sizes YOX-190…YOX-1000 (the number is the effective working-circuit diameter in mm) transmit 0.6–760 kW at 1,500 rpm and up to 1,000 kW at 1,000 rpm. YOXy and YOXys versions with an enlarged rear and side chamber extend the start-up. If the load jams, oil is released through a fusible plug.

COXZ Torque-Limiting Permanent Magnet Coupling
COXZ is a limited-moment permanent magnet coupler with a brake wheel at the output, for drives with a shoe brake. The principle is the same as COX: a copper rotor on the motor shaft and a magnet rotor on the reducer side transmit torque across a 5 mm gap; if the load jams, the gap opens to 35 mm and torque transmission stops, and operation resumes once the overload is removed. 16 sizes COXZ-270…COXZ-750: 11–710 kW at 1,500 rpm, brake wheel Ø300–630 mm, weight 105–670 kg.

YOX IIZ Brake Wheel Type, Outer-Wheel Drive
YOXIIZ is a constant filling fluid coupling with a brake wheel hub at the output end. It is an outer-wheel drive: the coupling is rigidly mounted on the motor shaft, and the brake wheel is connected to the reducer shaft through an elastic half-coupling with a spider, nylon pins or a customer-specified type. Parts are standardised, overall dimensions follow the industry norm. 10 sizes 360–1000, brake wheel Ø300–700 mm, 15–760 kW at 1,500 rpm. YOXyIIZ/YOXysIIZ versions extend the start-up. In SDS projects YOXIIZ/YOXyIIZ were offered to replace Flender FLUDEX FND/FNDS on belt conveyors.

YOXZ Brake Wheel Type, Inner-Wheel Drive
YOXZ is a constant filling fluid coupling with a brake wheel at the output and inner-wheel drive: the coupling is mounted on the motor shaft, and the brake wheel hub is connected to the reducer shaft through an elastic half-coupling with a spider, nylon pins or a type specified on order. The layout is shorter than YOXIIZ: the minimum length of YOXZ-1000 is 970 mm versus 1,140 mm. 12 sizes 280–1000, brake wheel Ø200–700 mm, 4–760 kW at 1,500 rpm and up to 1,000 kW at 1,000 rpm. YOXyz/YOXysz versions with enlarged chambers give a softer start.

YOXp Pulley Type
YOXp is a constant filling fluid coupling with a belt pulley on the housing: the motor (or reducer) shaft fits directly into the coupling bore, and torque is taken off the pulley. The layout needs no intermediate coupling and suits belt-driven machines. 15 sizes YOXp-190…YOXp-650: 0.6–500 kW at 1,500 rpm, 4.5–145 kW at 3,000 rpm, bore up to 120 mm, length 124–360 mm, weight 8–220 kg.

YOXf Double Flange Type
YOXf is the double-flange version: the coupling is attached to the motor and reducer through connecting flanges, rigidly to the motor shaft, with an elastic coupling at the output — usually a TL elastic sleeve-pin coupling, alternatively an ML jaw coupling with spider or an HL pin coupling. Installation, adjustment and removal are simplified at the cost of a slightly longer axial length; parts are highly standardised. 15 sizes YOXf-250…YOXf-1000, bores up to 180 mm, 2.5–760 kW at 1,500 rpm and up to 1,000 kW at 1,000 rpm. YOXyf/YOXysf versions with enlarged chambers suit heavy starts.

YOXF Compound Drain Type
YOXF is a version with an enlarged inner cavity of the rotating housing (the manufacturer calls it the "compound liquid-off" type). Like the versions with additional chambers, this extends the start-up and reduces shock loads on the driven machine. It is an inner-wheel drive, with the coupling weight carried by the motor shaft. 5 sizes 360–560: 15–250 kW at 1,500 rpm, bores up to 100/110 mm, weight 34–112 kg — lighter than YOX of the same sizes (40–140 kg). Variants: YOXF with shaft-in-bore connection, YOXFp with belt pulley, YOXFZ with brake wheel.

YOX Pin Connection Type
A variant of the basic YOX fluid coupling in which the jaw-type elastic half-coupling with a spider is replaced by one with nylon (polyamide) pins. The connection is unchanged: the reducer shaft fits into the coupling bore, the motor is connected via the pin half-coupling. According to the manufacturer, shaft alignment during installation is simpler, and the pins can be replaced without moving the motor or reducer. Sizes YOX-190…YOX-1000 share the YOX connection dimensions: 0.6–760 kW at 1,500 rpm, up to 1,000 kW at 1,000 rpm, bores up to 150 mm. A temperature switch is available on request.

The connection to motor and reducer is the same as in the basic version; in the manufacturer's table the series is based on YOXIIZ with outer-wheel drive. Shaft alignment during installation is simpler, and the pins are replaced without moving the motor or reducer. 10 sizes 360–1000, brake wheel Ø300–700 mm, 15–760 kW at 1,500 rpm, up to 1,000 kW at 1,000 rpm, bores up to 150 mm.
