Shock Guard TGM Series

- Sealed type with excellent environmental resistance
- - The structure is designed to prevent dust, oil, water, etc. from entering and oil from leaking.
- - The variation in adjacent trip torque is within ±5%.
- - The cam follower and pocket are engaged, so there is no phase misalignment between the drive side and the driven side.
- - When Shock Guard trips, the LS detection plate slides axially, activating the limit switch.
- -Long life, able to withstand over 100,000 trips.
- -Sprocket and coupling types are also available.

Operating principle
Please watch the animation to see the operating principle of the TGM series.
During normal operation (engaged)
Torque is transmitted through two-point contact between the cam follower and pocket.
The cam follower pocket is pressurized by a rectangular spring that presses firmly from the radial direction.
I am.
This means there is no backlash and it provides overload protection with highly accurate trip torque.
The return is Auto reset, so the cam follower returns to its original position in the pocket when operation resumes.
Since it is a two-point contact, there is no deviation from the original phase.
When overloaded (tripped)
When an overload occurs, the cam follower lifts out of its pocket and begins to roll on the outer surface of the camshaft.
As there are no sliding parts, the idling friction torque is small and it has excellent durability.
Furthermore, the structure is simple and the engagement is at one point, so high trip torque accuracy is not compromised.
Movement during overload (trip)
When Shock Guard trips due to an overload, the LS detection plate slides axially.
Limit switches can be activated to cut off power or sound an alarm.
The LS detection plate slides three times for one trip.
*Please refer to Instruction Manuals for information on overload detection using limit switches.
