LIQUID-COOLED CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC F16D25/12 F16D65/14 F16D65/853 F16D65/78 

FIELD: machine building.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to machine building. The connector assembly used for force transfer includes the housing, which contains a part of the rotating disk. The housing is fitted with plate element, coolant duct, and inlet and outlet holes. The plate element with the force transfer surface contacts through the circular zone of the lateral surface with the rotating disk for deceleration of relative rotation of the housing and disk. The coolant duct is partially formed by the side of the plate element counter to the force transfer surface. Through the inlet hole water enters the coolant duct, and through the outlet hole water leaves the coolant duct. The internal lateral surface of the plate element counter to the force transfer surface, comprises multiple hemispherical recesses, intended for forming of turbulence and a secondary turbulent water flow in the coolant duct for improvement of heat exchange between the plate element of the housing and water, flowing through the coolant duct.

EFFECT: device cooling improvement is achieved at the expense of increase of heat transfer coefficient.
