A Prony Brake Dynamometer

Aaron has happily shared his simple idea in designing his prony brake dynamometer for the 21st century, which, eventually became patent #9,921,117

 Creative thoughts and simple ideas are usually what starts new innovations. Anyone having a creative mind can produce new and simple designs. As time passes, it is the simple ideas which lead to the improvements of another device or even  totally new inventions.

The following pages will show steps in which a simple steel plate turned into the stator section for the new prony brake dynamometer. During the designing process it was my number one goal to simplify assembly, disassembly, and replacement of individual components during re-manufacturing of the brake.
