in specific implementation, because the electromagnetic coil 13 has short electrifying time, the brake ring 9 can be driven to quickly reach the free position by passing larger current in a short time when the system is transited from the braking state to the free state, and the electrifying time needs to be longer than the time required by the movement of the brake ring 9, taking specific working conditions as the standard; meanwhile, when the joint loses power, if the current generated by the counter electromotive force is insufficient to break the force balance relation of the free state, the current of the electromagnetic coil 13 can be increased by using an external capacitor so as to achieve the purpose of increasing the suction force;
it should be noted that the invention is suitable for the robot joint motor, and the motor rotor of the robot joint motor is of a hollow structure; this is not applicable to conventional motors where the rotor is solid.

When the electromagnetic coil 13 is electrified, the locking steel balls 6 are popped out under the action of the locking spring 5 and clamped into the locking groove 7, the brake ring 9 is separated from the motor rotor 1, and then the current of the electromagnetic coil 13 is cut off; compared with the prior art, the electromagnetic coil 13 is not in a power-on state for a long time, and the coil is powered off after the steel balls are clamped into the locking groove 7, so that compared with the prior band-type brake which needs to keep the electromagnetic coil 13 powered on in the whole course, the electromagnetic band-type brake has small coil heating value and small electromagnetic interference, and is beneficial to the heat dissipation design of joints; because the inner surface of the motor rotor 1 and the outer surface of the brake ring 9 are both annular conical surfaces, and the brake ring 9 is tightly attached to the motor rotor 1 when the motor rotor 1 is pressed under the action of the compression spring 10, the friction braking mode of the invention is annular conical surface friction braking, and compared with the traditional end surface friction braking, the friction braking mode has the advantages of larger friction area, stronger action positive pressure and better braking effect.
The above-described embodiments of the present invention should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. Any other corresponding changes and modifications made according to the technical idea of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
