Furthermore, the movable ball 7 and the roller 6 engage with each other once during one rotation (360 degrees) of the driving member relative to the driven member.
They are formed at irregular intervals in the circumferential direction so that there is no rotation. This is to prevent positional deviation between the input side and the output side when the torque limiting device is used in an indexing device. Therefore, when the positional deviation between the input side and the output side is not a problem, for example, when used by attaching to a belt pulley, chain sprocket, etc., it may be formed equally spaced.

[Claims] 1. A first member and a second member that are provided adjacent to each other so as to be able to rotate relative to each other, and when a load of a predetermined value or more is applied to one of the members, the torque that causes the relative rotation of the two members. In the restriction device, the outer periphery of the radially extending coupling portion of the first member has a bottom surface facing away from the second member and slopes radially inward, and the outer periphery of the coupling portion and the second member. A groove is formed that opens on the side surface opposite to the member, and a plurality of movable balls that can protrude from the outer peripheral surface or the side surface while in contact with the bottom surface are arranged in the groove so as to be movable along the bottom surface. forming grooves at positions corresponding to the grooves of the first member on the inner periphery of the annular protrusions that are arranged side by side in the circumferential direction and surrounding the coupling portion of the second member;
A roller is provided in the groove of the second member to engage with the movable ball so that circumferential play of the roller in the groove of the second member is zero, and the roller is adjacent to a side surface of the coupling portion. A thrust plate is arranged to press the movable ball, and the thrust plate is pressed against the coupling portion by a spring via a spring receiver, thereby causing the movable ball to be pressed against the roller, and the roller is pressed against the roller. A torque limiting device characterized by applying elastic pressure to the inner surface of a groove of a second member. 2. The spring receiver is provided between the thrust plate and the spring for co-rotating the first member but moving axially with respect to the first member, and 2. The torque limiting device according to claim 1, further comprising an adjusting nut for adjusting the pressing amount of the spring receiver, and a plurality of thrust rollers provided between the spring receiver and the thrust plate. 3. The torque limiting device according to claim 2, wherein the spring receiver is provided with a scale plate, and the adjusting nut is provided with an indicator that cooperates with the scale plate to display the amount of torque.
