The invention relates to a retaining means for magnets of magnetic clutch for pump drives and has an outer rotor receiving magnets on its inner side and an inner rotor receiving magnets on its outer side, the magnets being disposed evenly around the periphery of the rotors, while disposed coaxially of both sides of the magnets are thin annular disks having a number of straps which partially engage over the magnets on the side remote from the rotor, at least one strap engaging over one magnet in each case.

A magnetic clutch assembly for a pump comprising: an inner rotor having a first plurality of rectangularly shaped magnets spaced uniformly in a circular first array about an outer periphery of said inner rotor and having respective bearing faces resting against the outer periphery of the inner rotor

A magnetic clutch assembly for a pump comprising: an inner rotor having a first plurality of rectangularly shaped magnets spaced uniformly in a circular first array about an outer periphery of said inner rotor and having respective bearing faces resting against the outer periphery of the inner rotor; an outer rotor surrounding said inner rotor and having a second plurality of magnets in another circular array spaced around an inner periphery thereof in juxtaposition with the magnets of said inner rotor, whereby, upon rotation of said outer rotor said inner rotor is magnetically entrained in rotation about a common axis of said rotors; and retaining means for retaining said magnets at said rotors and including, for at least said inner rotor, a respective first thin annular disk on one axial side of said first array of said rectangularly shaped magnets and formed with a respective plurality of radially extending lugs having axial fingers engaging axially partially over the rectangularly shaped magnets of the first array along sides thereof remote from the inner rotor, and a respective second thin annular disk separate from the first annular disk on the opposite axial side of said first array and formed with a respective plurality of radially extending lugs having axial fingers engaging axially partially over the rectangularly shaded magnets of the first array along a side thereof remote from the inner rotor, said lugs of the annular disks of said inner rotor being dimensioned so that corners of the magnets thereof are at a greater radial distance from said axis than the corners of the lugs.
