FIELD: mechanical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: electromagnetic brake comprises housing, electromagnets, brake drum mounted on the shaft, power source, and source of magnetic field. The electromagnets are mounted in the top section of the housing one opposite to the other. The electromagnetic brake is provided with the braking clamp mounted in the bottom section of the housing and coils with cores radially interposed between the electromagnets and secured to the sectional braking drum made of two members interconnected through a wire. The wire is wound on each coil in several turns to define a closed electric circuit. The electromagnets and braking clamp are mounted with a spaced relation to the brake drum.
