Description

Magnetic fluid clutch with variable disc gap
Technical Field
The utility model relates to the technical field of magnetorheological fluid clutches, in particular to a variable disc gap magnetic fluid clutch.
Background
The magnetorheological fluid clutch is a mechanical device based on the characteristic of solidification of a magnetorheological fluid material, and torque is transmitted by means of shear yield stress generated by the magnetorheological fluid under the action of an external magnetic field, namely, a magnetorheological fluid shearing working mode is utilized. When no magnetic field acts, the magnetorheological fluid is represented as a common Newtonian fluid, only torque generated by common liquid viscous resistance is transmitted, and the clutch is in a disconnected state; when a magnetic field with certain strength is applied, magnetic particles of the magnetorheological fluid are distributed in a chain shape along the magnetic field, and when the rotating speed difference exists at two sides of the clutch, the magnetic chain is cut, and a larger shearing yield stress is generated, so that enough torque can be transmitted to enable the clutch to work normally. The transmitted shear torque can be controlled by controlling the strength of the magnetic field due to the nature of the magnetorheological fluid itself. Therefore, the magnetorheological fluid clutch has the advantages of stable transmission torque, simple structure, easy control, low energy consumption, long service life and the like.
The principle of the conventional magnetorheological fluid clutch in the current research is basically the same as that of the clutch of the single disc type, and the magnetorheological fluid between the driving disc and the driven disc enters different solidification states by changing the strength of an external magnetic field, so that shearing stress is generated to drive the driven disc to rotate to transfer torque. Theoretically, under the same condition, the gap between the driving disc and the driven disc can also have an influence on the transmitted maximum torque; in general, the smaller the gap, the larger the torque transmitted, but the larger the lost motion resistance (when the magnetic field is 0). The smaller the gap is, the better, and the smaller the gap is, so that the magnetorheological fluid layer between the shearing surfaces of the driving disk and the driven disk is too thin, and the two are basically in a dry friction state, and at the moment, large torque cannot be transmitted and the heating value is large. Therefore, the novel variable disc gap magnetic fluid clutch is designed for the research of the development of the disc type magneto-rheological fluid at the present stage.
