<p>An electromagnetic friction joint, particularly for connecting a torquing tool to a motor, for applying a predetermined torque to the tool; the joint presenting a pair of axial rotors fitted idly, coaxially in tandem, and mechanically disconnected from each other inside a casing, and respectively connected to the motor and the tool; the two rotors presenting respective opposite disk-shaped ends defined by respective opposite front faces facing each other and separated by a predetermined axial clearance, and surrounded radially on the outside by an electromagnet fitted to the casing, so that the disk-shaped ends are immersed in a predetermined magnetic field, the flux lines of which are linked via an air gap defined by the predetermined axial clearance; the front faces each presenting a respective ring of radial face teeth; the teeth in each ring presenting ridges defined by respective coplanar, flat face surfaces defined by annular wedges; and the axial clearance being defined between the surfaces of the teeth in one ring and the surfaces of the corresponding teeth in the other ring. <IMAGE> <IMAGE></p> |
