Abstract
Tapering shallow notches are provided in the surface of a rotor of a magnetic brake or clutch to increase the torque-transmitting effect of the unit as compared to a conventional smooth torque-transmitting surface. The notches taper decreasingly toward the torque-transmitting surface in the direction opposite to the direction of rotation of the rotor.
