 |
|
So the idea that a plastic shear coupling can
be 'overstressed' by some anomaly in field
excitation simply has no foundation in physics.
It is far more likely that material or a process
used to fabricate the coupling is deficient.
I found some exemplar shear couplers from a
vacuum pump pad. The two disks at each end
are engaged by pins on hard, drive parts.
The cylinder of plastic between the disks
is the shear section.
Being plastic, it is not a trivial matter to
craft a well calibrated part for shear strength.
B&C went through some iterations of materials
before settling on a production configuration.
I'm pretty confident that Plane Power is having
difficulty with their present batch of parts.
Bob . . .
Un impeachable logic: George Carlin asked, "If black boxes
survive crashes, why don't they make the whole airplane
out of that stuff?"
