Abstract:
An end surface portion of a rotor includes a friction surface and an end surface, which are spaced from each other in an axial direction. The armature is attracted and attached to the friction surface of the rotor by an electromagnetic attractive force when a solenoid coil is energized. The stator is opposed to the end surface of the end surface portion. A thermal fuse is held by a portion of a resin member located in an opening of the stator and is melted and disconnected to cut supply of an electric current to the solenoid coil when a temperature of the thermal fuse is equal to or higher than a predetermined temperature. The resin member has a recess that is formed in a predetermined position of a surface of the resin member, which is adjacent to the thermal fuse.
Abstract:
A ring insertion groove is formed between adjacent two of circular plates, which are made of a magnetic material and are arranged concentric with each other, and a ring, which is made of a non-magnetic material and has a larger deformation resistance in comparison to the magnetic material of the plates, is press fitted into the ring insertion groove. Thereafter, a peripheral part around an opening of the ring insertion groove is plastically flowed, so that a compression stress is left in the ring.
Abstract:
A recess, which has a bottom, is formed in at least one of a contact surface of a rotor and a contact surface of an armature. A solid material, which is made of thermoset resin that contains powder of metal oxide or metal dispersed in the thermoset resin, is formed in an inside of the recess.
Abstract:
Provided are a fastened composite and a method of fastening an adherend, which includes a friction material, to a coating object, comprising; forming on at least a part of a surface of the coating object a coated film with a curable resin-containing paint; and fastening the adherend to the surface of the coating object, by subjecting heating and/or irradiation of an active energy ray to the coated film, while making the adherend closely contact the coated film to press it by a predetermined pressure, to cure the coated film.
Abstract:
A coil housing has an inner ring, which is shaped into an annular form and is placed on an inner side of an electromagnetic coil in a radial direction of a rotational axis. A thermal fuse is placed on an inner side of a coil inner peripheral end of the electromagnetic coil in the radial direction, so that the thermal fuse can be placed in such a manner that the thermal fuse does not limit a length of the electromagnetic coil in a direction of the rotational axis by using a radial thickness of the inner ring that is indispensable as a part of a structure of a magnetic circuit. Thus, it is possible to sufficiently limit occurrence of limiting of a size of the electromagnetic coil that is caused by the placement of the thermal fuse.

Abstract:
An electromagnetic clutch with improved transmission torque by means of a low-cost method includes an electromagnetic coil, a rotor that is rotary driven by means of an external drive source, an armature attracted to the rotor by means of a magnetic force of the electromagnetic coil, and a hub structure. The electromagnetic clutch is characterized in that a recessed and projected surface having a surface roughness of 10 μm or more and a hardness of 4 GPa or less is formed on the friction surface of the rotor and/or the friction surface of the armature.
