Magnetic Repulsion Coupling for Transmission of a Rotational Movement from a Driving Member to a Driven Member
First Claim
1. A coupling for transmission of a rotational movement about an axis of rotation from a driving member to a driven member, the coupling comprising:
- one or more permanent magnets coupled to the driving member and disposed in a radial plane parallel to the axis of rotation;
one or more permanent magnets coupled to the driven member and disposed in a radial plane parallel to the axis of rotation;
wherein the permanent magnets coupled to the driving member are situated opposite the permanent magnets coupled to the driven member and have the same magnetic polarity so that each pair of oppositely facing magnets produces a corresponding magnetic repulsion force.

Abstract
Coupling for transmission of a rotational movement from a driving member to a driven member, comprising permanent magnets which are integral with the driving member and permanent magnets which are integral with the driven member, said permanent magnets having a matching polarity (N-N;S-S) and lying in respective radial planes parallel to the axis of rotation and situated opposite each other so that each pair of oppositely facing magnets produces a corresponding magnetic repulsion force. The magnet transmission force transmits the rotational movement from the driving member to the driven member.
