ADJUSTABLE BRAKING COUPLING Russian patent published in 2001 - IPC

FIELD: machine engineering, namely transmission, distribution, controlling and braking of rotary motion. SUBSTANCE: adjustable braking coupling includes housing filled with ferromagnetic liquid, driving and driven semicouplings arranged in housing, magnetic field inductors. When driving semicoupling rotates it drives driven semicouplings through ferromagnetic liquid. As magnetic field intensity created by poles of inductors increases, engagement effort between semicouplings grows. EFFECT: enhanced functional possibility of braking coupling. 8 cl, 6 dwg
