Abstract: Measuring apparatus comprises a rotating plate 17, a torque detection plate 18 disposed on a same axis parallel to the plate 17 with a given gap, a torque sensor about the plate 18 through the specimen held between two plates. The plate 18 is a total reflection prism which is made from a material that has a greater refractive index than the specimen and transmits UV and infrared light. An ultraviolet beam is directed onto the specimen through the prism. An infrared beam is directed into the prism. The infrared beam emerging from the prism after total reflection from the interface between the prism and the specimen is detected. A signal processor analyzes the infrared absorption spectrum of the specimen on the basis of the infrared beam. While the viscosity of the specimen in the curing process is measured, the signal processor simultaneously measures the infrared absorption spectrum.

Abstract: An electromagnetic clutch (20) capable of connecting and disconnecting a driving power source and a rotary shaft (22) includes a rotor (25) rotated by the driving power source, and an armature (40) capable of being attracted to the rotor (25) by electromagnetic force to produce a transmission force transmitted from the rotor (25) to the rotary shaft (22).

The leaf springs (52) each assume an orientation such that a boost force assisting the attractive force acting upon the armature (40) is produced based on the transmission force when the armature (40) is attracted to the rotor (40).

Abstract: An electromagnetic clutch for separably coupling a drive source and a rotary shaft has a rotor to be disposed in the outside of the rotary shaft concentrically therewith. The rotor is rotated by a drive source and accommodates an electromagnetic coil.

Furthermore, the electromagnetic clutch has a coupler for coupling the armature plate and the rotary shaft to each other. The coupler includes a center part to be coupled to the rotary shaft and an elastically-deformable outer part for coupling the center part to the armature plate, the outer part being extended from the center part and elastically deformed when the armature plate is attracted to the rotor.

Abstract: In an electromagnetic clutch, an electromagnetic coil is energized to couple a rotor and an armature plate to each other. Each leaf spring extends in a direction so as to intersect at an obtuse angle with the rotating direction of the armature plate, and accordingly, when the power of the driving source is transmitted to the armature plate through the rotor, a compressive force acts upon the leaf spring. The leaf spring has an inclined portion, and the armature plate is pressed against the rotor by the compressive force. Each leaf spring has a first extended portion located between the first coupling portion and inclined portion thereof and a second extended portion located between the second coupling portion and inclined portion thereof.
