摘要：A viscous coupling comprising two parts which form an annular chamber which isfilled with a highly viscous fluid and in which first coupling plates are connected to thefirst one of the parts for rotation therewith and second coupling plates are connectableto the second one of the parts which are arranged so as to alternate in the longitudinal

direction. The second coupling plates are arranged so as to alternate with clamping ringsin the second one of the parts , which clamping rings , in turn, are connected to thesecond one of the parts for rotation therewith. A first axial adjusting device acts in an axialdirection on the second coupling plates and on the clamping rings and locks the samerelative to one another and to the second one of the parts . A brake assembly for thesetting ring comprises a second viscous coupling having a second annular chamber whichis filled with a highly viscous fluid and in which third coupling plates are connected to thesetting ring for rotation therewith. Fourth coupling plates are connectable to the otherone of the two parts and are arranged so as to alternate in the longitudinal direction. Thefourth coupling plates are arranged so as to alternate with second clamping rings on oneof the parts, which clamping rings , in turn, are connected for rotation with one of theparts; and have a second axial adjusting device for the setting ring of the brake assembly.
