La funzione del braccio di reazione per il cambio ad albero cavo

The torque arm is a connecting link between the reducer and a fixed point intended to resist the torque developed by the gearbox, transmitting the reaction torque produced by the gearbox, and preventing the counter-rotation of the gearbox during operation.

The function of torque arm is to support the reaction torque of hollow shaft gear units in the shaft-mounted version.

The torque can bear tensile stress as well as thrust loads. The length of the torque arm can be adjusted within a certain range.Do not place the torque arm under strain during installation. Strain leads to constraining forces on the output shaft, which may negatively influence the service lift of the output shaft bearings.
To keep the bending moment on the machine shaft as low as possible, the torque arm must always be mounted on the same side as the machine that is driven.
The torque arm can be mounted on the top or bottom of the gear unit.
Gearboxes that are shaft mounted can use a torque arm, (or reaction arm) to maintain gearbox positioning.
