Electromagnetically Actuated Spring-Applied Brake And Method For Its Manufacture

Abstract

An electromagnetically actuated spring-applied brake comprises a brake disk which can be arranged on a shaft in a non-rotatable but axially displaceable manner, an electromagnet which has a magnet housing and a coil accommodated therein, an armature plate arranged to be displaceable axially between the brake disk and the magnet housing and a flange, which is arranged non-rotatably on the magnet housing by a connecting element. The brake disk and the armature plate are arranged between the flange and the magnet housing. The connecting element engages in a counterpart which is designed to correspond to the connecting element and is pressed into a blind hole provided by the magnet housing. The edge of the counterpart facing the magnet housing is arranged at a distance from the bottom of the blind hole while leaving a gap space having a residual volume.
