ECCENTRIC HIGH-TORQUE OVERRUNNING CLUTCH Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering+ADs- connection of shafts at transmission of high power at high frequency of engagement+ADs- reversible overrunning clutches in high-torque variable-speed drives. SUBSTANCE: proposed clutch includes drive clutch member, holder made in form of ring with cylindrical surfaces, roller fitted inside holder which is kinematically linked with drive shaft, driven clutch member with driven shaft provided with eccentric and sleeve embracing the eccentric and holder+ADs- holder is provided with wedge which is spring-loaded relative to driven shaft. Roller and holder form rotary pairs with eccentric and sleeve, respectively. Wedge is located between roller and holder. Novelty of invention consists in availability of satellite and disk which are rotatable relative to drive shaft. Satellite is engageable with holder and disk for transmission of rotation during turn of drive shaft. Disk is connected with roller by means of spider plate for relative translational motion. Satellite may be made in form of gear thrown into engagement with toothed rims made on holder and disk+ADs- pins may be also made on holder and disk+ADs- satellite may b provided with slots with pins received by them. EFFECT: improved service characteristics+ADs- enhanced efficiency. 3 cl, 5 dwg
