In an electric motor regulating and control drive, especially for industrial sewing machines, a clutch-brake disk is mounted for co-rotation on an output shaft and has a clutch facing which can be brought into engagement with a clutch surface of a flywheel of the corresponding motor, and has a brake facing which can be brought into engagement with a brake surface of a brake-bearing plate. In order to achieve by simple means an effective suppression of impact noises when a braking action is initiated, at least the brake facing is mounted with damping with respect to the armature ring of the clutch-brake disk. It is preferably thrust against the armature ring by means of at least one annular spring.

An electromotive variable-speed and control drive particularly for use in industrial sewing machines comprising a motor capable of continuous drive with a disk flywheel and a brake-coupling unit connected to this motor. Cooling ribs confining cooling channels are disposed at the stator frame to achieve efficient cooling. A disk flywheel in the form of a fan is in the form of an axial-radial blower the suction area of which extends to the coupling surface of the disk flywheel. Furthermore, particularly intensive cooling of the brake end shield is possible.

A multiple rotary drive system for a textile-working machine has first and second clutch-brake units. Each clutch-brake unit has a rotatable flywheel, a non-rotatable brake surface, and a rotatable shaft to be driven, whereby the rotatable shaft can be connected to the textile-working machine as a rotary drive of the system therefor. A clutch disc and a brake disc of each clutch-brake unit are connected to the shaft thereof for rotation therewith and are arranged for controllably engaging with, respectively, the flywheel for rotatably driving the shaft therefrom and the brake surface for braking rotation of the shaft therefrom. The flywheel of the first clutch-brake unit is rotationally driven, whereby the drive system can be driven by a continuously-rotating shaft of a continuously-operating electric motor. A belt extends about each flywheel for coordinate rotation of the flywheels when the one is rotatably driven by the electric motor. Then, when the clutch disc of either or both of the clutch-brake units is engaged with the flywheel thereof, the shaft thereof is rotatably driven in coordination with the drive of the one flywheel and the shaft of the other clutch-brake unit if its clutch disc is also engaged with its flywheel.

A belt guard for clutch motors for industrial sewing machines comprises a cover made of two cover halves which can be clapped together. This cover extensively covers a V-belt pulley part of which accommodates a V-belt. In order to achieve an effective ingoing belt safety device which can be adapted to suit a variety of V-belt pulley diameters without exceeding the permissible maximum distances to the ingoing V-belt section on the one hand and to the V-belt pulley on the other the ingoing belt safety device comprises a safety pin extending into the wedge-shaped area between the ingoing V-belt section and the V-belt pulley. This pin can be attached to a safety slide bar fixed to a cover half in an adjustable manner, or to a disc serving as a mount for the cover halves.

An arrangement for securing a housing cover, especially useful for securing a cover for a switch box having electrical switching devices therein includes at least one screwable element which can be threaded to the housing and which is secured undetachably on the cover by a stop on its shaft. The shaft extends through the cover, each of the screwable elements extending through a bottom of an indentation in a surface of the cover. A pre-stressed compression spring is disposed in the indentation between a shoulder of the screwable element and the base of the indentation. Each screwable element comprises a shaft nut, the shaft nut having a shaft with an indentation in its pressure-receiving face. The shaft engages with a threaded pin attached to the housing and rests against a structural part which is supported against a support attached to the housing. The screwable element is centered by a centering body positioned directly ahead of the support on the threaded pin.

An actuation apparatus for a control switch which, in accordance with the position of a switching member, produces various control signals, in which an actuation arm coupled with the switching member is provided. The actuation arm is pivotable out of a central position of rest about a pivoting shaft counter to the restoring force of a torsion spring provided with free arms. A respective stationary initial stop is provided for each arm for the purpose of fixing the arm position in the position of rest and in which at least one coupler in contact with the free arms is connected with the actuation arm. At least one second stop, which acts as an end stop, is operatively associated with each free arm of the torsion spring to define the end of the switching paths.

A circuit board arrangement which is to be disposed in a housing closable by a cover or hood has a plugged connector, which has plug prongs for effecting electrical connections of circuitry attached to the housing. The plug connector is secured on a rim portion of the circuit board. The plug connector is disposed on the side of the circuit board oriented towards the cover. The plug prongs extend perpendicular to the main plane of the circuit board, plug sockets opening toward an outer face of the plug connector remote from the circuit board. The outer face is located in an opening in the cover. The plug connector is an insulating body substantially L-shaped in cross-section having one free end of the longer L-arm supported on the circuit board and having a shorter L-arm pointing towards the adjacent circuit board rim portion. The plug connector has U-shaped plug prongs extending through its longer L-arm and its shorter L-arm.

An optoelectronic synchro generator which comprises at least one photoelectric circuit element which includes a light source and an associated receiver. A rotatable shaft has mounted thereon, for rotation therewith, elements which define at least one optically effective surface spaced from the axis of rotation of the shaft and through which light coming from the light source impinges on the receiver when the surface is in a predetermined position during the rotation of the shaft. A removable cover covering the shaft and the photoelectric circuit element and a shield disposed between the receiver and the optically effective surface prevents the impingement of stray light on the receiver when the cover is removed.

This invention relates to pulleys or similar parts with a hub, the hub being provided with a tapered bore for assembly to a shaft having a complementally tapered end. The hub is provided with a draw-off arrangement which consists of a flanged nut screwed onto a threaded projection on the end of the shaft and which presses against a shoulder within the hub when attaching the part. When detaching the part the nut flange bears against a radially overhanging axially mounted backstop ring either formed integrally with the hub or by a washer secured to the hub.
