ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for securing an electric brake/clutch (14) against rotation relative to a stationary member (10). A preferred system includes an anti-rotation lever (26) attached to and extending from a brake/clutch housing (16). Anti-rotation lever (26) includes a flange (32) at its free end. Flange (32) is situated between a pair of spaced opposed rubber bumpers (34) attached to stationary member (10). Thus, torque applied to the housing (16) of brake/clutch (14) is transmitted through anti-rotation lever (26), rubber bumper (34), and ultimately to stationary member (10). The distance between rubber bumpers (34) exceeds the thickness of flange (32), whereby anti-rotation lever (26) and housing (16) can radially float relative to stationary member (10), thereby permitting "runout" of brake/clutch assembly (14).
