TANK OF TIRE-TYPE PNEUMATIC CLUTCH Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC F16D25/04 B60C5/08 B29D30/66 

FIELD: machine building.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to machine building and can be used in tire-type pneumatic clutches for torque transfer. Tank of tire-type pneumatic clutch contains sealing chamber, cord carcass, external and internal treads. Into mass of internal tread there are introduced spring insertions, located with similar pitch parallel to longitudinal axis of tank. Spring insertions can be implemented as punched and manufactured from material keeping its properties in the range of temperatures from minus 50°C up to plus 180°C. Spring insertions provides compensate residual bulk deformation of tank, providing clearance between internal tread and drum, and also provide compensate deflection of internal tread under dead weight in conditions of horizontal installation of clutch.

EFFECT: durability increasing of operation of working tire-type pneumatic clutch.
