Abstract
A yoke core of an electromagnetic brake system includes a rotation shaft hole portion through which a rotation shaft is penetrated, and additionally includes an inner yoke portion and an outer yoke portion which are arranged on both inner and outer sides, by pinching a concave groove. A coil is accommodated in the concave groove and a magnetic flux is generated by applying electricity to attract an armature. The armature has a penetrating hole portion in the center, and a protruded shaft portion formed on the inner yoke portion is inserted to the penetrating hole portion. The rotation shaft has one side thereof rotatably supported by a support portion of a housing, and the other side thereof rotatably supported by the protruded shaft portion via the armature and a planetary gear mechanism. Accordingly, it is not necessary to provide bearings or the like.
