Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A controllable composite clutch having limited torque while being in a released state, in which a clutch capable of being controlled for performing engaging/releasing function and a physical limited torque device having relatively smaller torque being axially installed between an input/output shaft and an output shaft, or being radially installed between an input shaft and a cylindrical outputting rotation part; so that when the clutch is controlled to be in an engaged state, the rotary kinetic energy between the input shaft and the output shaft is transferred through the clutch; and when the clutch is controlled to be in a released state, the physical limited torque device performs limited torque coupling, such that the rotary kinetic energy between the input shaft and the output shaft can continue to be transferred and the slip rotational speed differential is generated due to over-torque can be carried out by smaller set torque.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A controllable composite clutch comprising: at least one input shaft, said at least one input shaft being a shaft or rotary structure configured to input rotary kinetic energy, and combinable to an input end of at least one of an axial clutch and a limited torque device; at least one output shaft, said at least one output shaft being a shaft or rotary structure configured to output the rotary kinetic energy, and combinable to an output end of at leas…
