ABSTRACT:
An eddy current coupling (11) includes a housing (13, 15, 17), a rotor member (29), inductor drum means (25) rotatable about an axis of rotation relative to the rotor member and coil means (41) for electro-magnetically coupling the rotor member and inductor drum means. The housing includes a non-circular central portion (13) having an opening at both ends thereof which is expandable in a radial direction perpendicular to the axis of rotation and first (15) and second (17) end members. The central portion of the housing defines a chamber (80) for receiving the rotor member, inductor drum means and coil means. The first and second end members include pilot surfaces (84, 90) thereon. The end member 15 is adapted to have the pilot surfaces (84) thereon received in one end of the central portion (13) of the housing and the end member (17) is adapted to have the pilot surfaces (90) thereon received in the other end of the central portion (13) of the housing to enclose the chamber in the central portion of the housing and to expand the central portion of the housing in a radial direction to a diameter equal to the diameter of the pilot surfaces on the end members.
