DUAL ELECTROMAGNETIC CLUTCH ASSEMBLY.

摘要

A dual clutch assembly is operable to drivingly couple a first shaft with one or both of second and third shafts. The clutch assembly has a coil housing having a first electromagnetic coil and a second electromagnetic coil. The first shaft is rotatably mounted to the coil housing. The first shaft is fixed for rotation with a first rotor cooperating with the first electromagnetic coil and a second rotor cooperating with the second electromagnetic coil. A first armature plate is elastically coupled to the second shaft to selectively couple and uncouple the first shaft with the second shaft upon energizing and de-energizing the first electromagnetic coil. A second armature plate is elastically coupled to a third shaft to selectively couple and uncouple the first shaft with the third shaft upon energizing and de-energizing the second electromagnetic coil.
