ABSTRACT:
Clutch and brake apparatus that is operable by a compressible fluid, particularly pneumatically, includes input and output shafts mounted in a common housing that has a clutch chamber. A clutch plate and a clutch flange are mounted in the clutch chamber with the flange being fixed to the input shaft and the clutch plate dividing the clutch chamber into two operating chambers that are adapted to be at different fluid pressures. A friction lining is fixed to at least one of the clutch plate and clutch flange for engaging the other. A clutch plate is mounted to be axially displacable relative to the output shaft in every load condition while at least one torque plate is fixed to rotate with the output shaft and a peripheral portion of the clutch plate. The torque plate is subjected to the same fluid pressure on both sides. The apparatus is able to operated with a large pressure differences across the clutch plate without danger of damaging the clutch plate.
