Abstract
An electromagnetic clutch apparatus for providing a reversible mechanical linkage between a driving motor and its mechanical load and which is particularly well suited for use as part of an electrically actuatable automotive cruise control system. The apparatus is inherently self-disengaging, thereby limiting the maximum mechanical load against which the driving motor may operate. The apparatus is designed to be placed between the final output gear of a gear train and the engine throttle and yet overcomes the problems associated with such a placement because the mechanical torque which the clutch is designed to transmit is not directly related to the electromagnetic force required to keep the clutch engaged.
