Abstract: A rotational coupling device for use as a clutch, a brake, or a combination clutch and brake is provided having structure to compensate for wear on braking surfaces. The device includes an armature coupled to an output member and movable between positions of engagement with a rotor and a brake plate. The brake plate is coupled to a stationary field shell that houses a conductor on one side of the rotor opposite the armature and brake plate. The brake plate is axially spaced from the field shell and a removable shim or adjustable spacer is disposed between the brake plate and the field shell. Removal of the shim or adjustment of the spacer permit movement of the brake plate towards the field shell to compensate for wear in any of the clutch or brake engagement surfaces of the device.

Abstract: A new and improved grill assembly for cooking over an open fire at a campsite comprising a stake from which a grill is cantilevered outwardly and suspended over an open fire. The stake is driven into the ground or guide wire supported as desired. The grill is rotatable about the stake and adjustable along the vertical length of the stake and securable at any height above the fire by a frictional engagement with the stake. The frictional engagement comprises a binding ring disposed about the stake that binds to the stake as a result of the center of gravity being radially outward from the stake. The grill also comprises accessory pieces such as a hook for hanging a cooking pot, a secondary grill platform for more grilling space, for warming, or for support for a cutting board, and a rotisserie attachment for slow roasting food. The accessories are each secured to the stake above the grill or below the grill, as desired, by frictional engagement with the stake.
