  • Patent number: 10218253
    Abstract: The invention relates to an adjustable magnetic coupling assembly for coupling of a first rotary shaft and a second rotary shaft, the magnetic coupling assembly comprising a first and second rotary hub connectable to the first shaft and second shaft, respectively and a central shaft, a first and a second rotatable inductor rotor connected to the central shaft, the inductor rotors being configured to be rotated by the central shaft and to be movable in axial direction along the central shaft by a positioning mechanism and a rotatable central magnet rotor connected to the second rotary hub and arranged centrally between the first and second rotatable inductor rotor. The assembly further comprises a positioning mechanism coupled to the first and second rotatable inductor rotors and configured to selectively move the inductor rotors to adjust the axial distances between the magnet rotor and the respective inductor rotor.
