Hydraulically actuated clutch for the frictional rotational connection of a hub to a shaft, similar in construction to a clamping set or a shrink-fit disc

摘要

A double-taper inner ring (2) is assigned to the hub, the tapered friction faces of the inner ring or rings (2) being kept free of the pressure medium by appropriate control of the latter and there being a pressure space (5) with a pressure-medium passage (7), the overall hydraulic system formed thus being mounted and secured on the clutch body as an independent and self-contained component in the form of an annular housing (1), being located outside the overall body of the clutch and of the main clamping mechanism, to the side of the clutch body. <IMAGE>
