[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of magnetic powder clutches, and particularly relates to a low-noise magnetic powder clutch. Background Technique

[0002] A magnetic powder clutch, also known as an electromagnetic powder clutch or a magnetic powder type clutch, is based on the electromagnetic principle and uses magnetic powder to transmit torque. It has a basically linear relationship between the exciting current and the transmitted torque. It can transmit a certain torque regardless of the slip, and has the advantages of fast response speed, simple structure, no pollution, no noise, no impact vibration, and energy saving. It is a multi-purpose and superior performance automatic control element. Classified by shaft type, there are: double-shaft magnetic powder clutches, hollow shaft magnetic powder clutches, and hollow shaft magnetic powder clutches. Classified by cooling method, there are: self-cooling type, air-cooling type, and water-cooling type, etc.

[0003] The existing patent CN201606426U for magnetic powder clutches proposes that the outer part of the rotating shaft of the present utility model is sleeved with a first inner sleeve and a second inner sleeve that are butt-jointed. The outer parts of the first inner sleeve and the second inner sleeve are provided with a first outer shell and a second outer shell that are butt-jointed. First rolling bearings are respectively arranged between the two ends of the rotating shaft and the first inner sleeve and the second inner sleeve. Second rolling bearings are respectively arranged between the first outer shell and the second inner sleeve and between the second outer shell and the first inner sleeve.

Its structural design is scientific and simple, with a small volume, convenient for use and installation, and can be installed in multiple directions without being restricted by the position.

[0004] However, although the existing patent CN201606426U has a scientific and simple design, a small volume, convenient for use and installation, and can be installed in multiple directions without being restricted by the position, when the magnetic powder inside the magnetic powder clutch moves under the action of the electromagnetic field, some noise may be generated.

[0011] Preferably, heat sinks are fixedly arranged on the left and right sides of the inner end of the machine shell, and a support block is fixedly arranged at the lower end of the magnetic powder braking unit. If the current passing through the electromagnet coil is larger, then the number of magnetic chains is more, and the magnetic chains are also stronger.

[0012] Preferably, a shock absorber is fixedly arranged below the magnetic powder braking unit, and a magnetic powder distribution pipeline 1 is fixedly arranged on the right side below the shock absorber. The shock absorber can offset the vibration generated during the formation of magnetic chains. When the magnetic chains are many and strong, the torque transmission capacity of the magnetic powder clutch is greater.

[0013] Preferably, a throttle valve 1 is fixedly arranged below the magnetic powder distribution pipeline 1, and a magnetic powder distribution pipeline 2 is fixedly arranged on the left side below the shock absorber. The shock absorber can offset the vibration generated during the formation of magnetic chains.

At the same time, magnetic powder particles form magnetic chains between the electromagnet and driven disk 2, connecting driving disk 1 and the electromagnet. If the current passing through the electromagnet coil is greater, then the number of magnetic chains is more, and the magnetic chains are also stronger. When the magnetic chains are numerous and strong, the torque transmission capacity of the magnetic powder clutch is greater. The shock absorber can cancel out the vibration generated during the formation of magnetic chains.
