ABSTRACT:
A control mechanism for a coupling device such as a clutch or variable speed drive or brake comprises an electric motor. A mechanism links the electric motor to an actuator device for the coupling device. A brake device is coupled to this linking mechanism. The brake device is also coupled to the drive shaft and comprises two friction pads at diametrally opposed positions relative to the drive shaft in contact with the drive shaft. A spring urges the pads towards the drive shaft substantially radially. The brake device comprises a casing rotationally immobilized relative to the drive shaft, which passed through the casing, which encloses the two friction pads. The casing has a back wall and one of the pads is disposed between the drive shaft and this wall. The other pad is slidably disposed in the casing and pressed against the drive shaft by the spring, which is prestressed in compression. The casing is movable relative to the drive shaft in a substantially radial direction, which enables self-centering of the brake device relative to the drive shaft. The friction pad between the back wall and the drive shaft is molded in one piece with the casing. The casing comprises another back wall which has a threaded section screwed into the casing to form a movable abutment member for varying the prestressing of the spring.
