Development of DL pulley for variable displacement compressor: development of metal breakage type torque limiter

Abstract

A new type DL pulley for the continuous variable displacement compressor has been developed. This technology was achieved by special metal and special limiter shape. As a result, it has achieved various superior characteristics, such as accurate limiter torque and light weight, to our current DL pulley.

This paper reports the mechanism and characteristic of the new type limiter.
