Abstract
A power transmission system including: a motor that includes a rotor, and a stator provided outside the rotor and movable in a rotation axis direction of the rotor; a moving member that is connected to the stator and movable in the rotation axis direction; a clutch that disables transmission of power between the rotor and a power transmission member, in conjunction with movement of the moving member; a power source that applies a voltage to a coil wound around the stator and the moving member, and an operation control part that switches between a connected state where the clutch transmits power and a disconnected state where the clutch does not transmit power, by causing the power source to apply a voltage to the coil to move the stator in the rotation axis direction of the rotor.
Claims9
A power transmission system comprising:
- a motor including a rotor and a stator provided outside the rotor;
- a clutch that disables transmission of power between the rotor and a power transmission member to which rotational force of the motor is transmitted;
- an operation control part that switches between (i) a connected state where the clutch transmits power and (ii) a disconnected state where the clutch does not transmit power, by moving the stator in a rotation axis direction of the rotor;
- and
- a coil used for moving the stator, wherein the operation control part switches the clutch between the connected state and the disconnected state by causing a power source to apply a voltage to the coil to move the stator in the rotation axis direction.
