Electromagnetic clutch apparatus

摘要

An electromagnetic clutch apparatus includes: a rotational shaft rotatable for an input and output of a rotational driving force; a rotor integrally rotated with the rotational shaft about an axis and provided with a plurality of magnetic poles each having a first polarity and a second polarity being different from the first polarity, the first and second polarities of the magnetic poles being arranged alternately along a circumferential direction of the rotor; an armature supported to be rotatable relative to the rotor; a rotational member rotated for the one of the input and output of the rotational driving force relative to the armature; an exciting coil stored in the rotor and generating magnetic flux so that the rotor electromagnetically attracts the armature; and a magnetic flux detecting element arranged to face the magnetic poles along a direction of the axis so as to detect magnetic flux of the magnetic poles.
