<<Prior Art>> A conventional torque limiter of this type is described in, for example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 55-21893.
In this device, a rotating body made of a cylindrical boss member having a flange portion is fixed to the outer periphery of a driving shaft and a driven shaft, which are arranged on the same axis, so as to face each other.
A recess is formed in the flange portion of one rotating body passing through it in the axial direction, and a groove is formed in the flange portion of the other rotating body, and a roller is housed in the recess. The outer periphery of one side is engaged with the groove, and the outer periphery of the other side is brought into contact with an overload detection panel, and this overload detection panel is biased along the axial direction. A torque spring is brought into contact with the roller to press it against the groove.

Therefore, in this torque limiter, when a load exceeding the set transmission limit torque value determined by the elastic force of the torque spring is applied, the roller separates from the groove against the elastic force of the torque spring.
As a result, torque transmission is interrupted, and the driving-side rotating body and the driven-side rotating body rotate relative to each other.

<Problems to be solved by the invention> By the way, in the above-mentioned conventional device, when the torque transmission is cut off and the rotating body on the driving side and the rotating body on the driven side rotate relative to each other, the roller is moved by the torque spring. As a result, the roller remains under pressure, and during its relative rotation, the roller continues to engage with or disengage from the concave groove, causing impact noise and vibration, as well as the problem that a slight amount of torque is transmitted. It was hot.

At this time, when the roller 12 is pushed back and moves along the axial direction, the overload detection panel 34 also moves along the axial direction to the pressure nut 38.
moved towards the side. Then, the small diameter cylindrical part 3
Each steel ball 36 locked in the annular tapered groove-shaped engagement recess 44 formed on the inner circumferential surface 34d of the steel ball 4c is connected to the tapered surface 44a of the engagement recess 44 and the inclined surface 46 formed on the boss member 16. The torque spring 40 is moved along its axis and radially inward while compressing the torque spring 40. And each steel ball 36
The overload detection panel 34 is automatically disengaged from the engagement recess 44 during its entire travel stroke, and thereafter the small diameter cylindrical portion 34c
The thrust ring 42 is locked by the flat inner circumferential surface 34d, the inclined surface 46, and the end surface 42a of the thrust ring 42.

Therefore, after the steel ball 36 is disengaged from the engagement recess 44, the elastic force of the torque spring 40 is no longer transmitted to the overload detection panel 34, and the elastic force of the torque spring 40 is blocked. It will be maintained in the same state. As a result, the roller 12 is no longer pressed by the flange portion 28 of the driven rotating body 10, and even if the driving rotating body 6 and the driven rotating body 10 rotate relative to each other, the roller 12 falls into the groove 30. They do not cause impact noise or vibrations. Therefore, this makes it possible to improve reliability such as the durability of the equipment as much as possible.

<<Effects>> In summary, according to the present invention, the outer circumferential surface of the boss portion of one rotating body and the inner circumference of the overload detection panel that is provided on the outer circumferential side of this boss portion and presses the roller toward the other rotating body. A steel ball is interposed between the surface and the steel ball, which is pressed against the other rotating body along the axial direction by a torque spring via a thrust ring, and is attached to the boss part by the elastic force. The overload detection panel has an inclined surface that guides the steel balls radially outward, and a recess that locks the steel balls guided radially outward on the inner peripheral surface of the overload detection panel. Then, the steel ball is engaged with this engagement recess to transmit the elastic force of the torque spring to the overload detection panel, and the overload detection panel is pushed back along its axial direction against the elastic force. When this occurs, the steel ball is pushed back inward in the radial direction along the inclined surface of the boss to disengage the engagement recess, so that the rotating body on the drive side and the driven side When the overload detection panel is pushed back due to the torque acting between it and the rotating body exceeding a predetermined value, the elastic force of the torque spring transmitted to the overload detection panel is automatically cut off to prevent the cutoff state. can be maintained. Therefore, when the rotating body on the driving side and the rotating body on the driven side rotate relative to each other, the rollers do not fall into the groove, which prevents the occurrence of impact noise and vibrations, thereby improving the durability of the equipment. Reliability can be improved as much as possible.

A rotating body on the driving side and a rotating body on the driven side are provided on the same axis with their flanges facing each other, and a recess is formed in one of the flange portions to pass through the flange portion, and a recess is formed in the other flange portion. A concave groove is formed to correspond to the concave portion, and a roller is housed in the concave portion, and the outer circumferential portion on one side of the roller is engaged with the concave groove, and the outer circumferential portion on the other side is engaged with the concave groove. An annular overload detection panel that presses the roller toward the groove side is brought into contact with the overload detection panel, and a torque spring is brought into contact with the overload detection panel that biases it toward the roller side along the axial direction. In the limiter, an elastic force cutoff is provided between the overload detection panel and the torque spring to block the elastic force of the torque spring from being transmitted to the overload detection panel when the overload detection panel is pushed back. The elastic force interrupting means includes a steel ball interposed between the inner circumferential surface of the overload detection panel and the outer circumferential surface of the boss portion of one of the rotating bodies, and the steel ball and the torque spring. a thrust ring interposed between and in contact with the boss portion, and an inclined surface formed on the outer circumferential surface of the boss portion to guide the steel ball radially outward to be compressed along the axial direction; Formed on the inner circumferential surface of the overload detection panel, it locks the steel balls guided outward in the radial direction, and when the overload detection panel is pushed back along the axial direction, the steel balls are guided in the radial direction. and an engagement recess that pushes the steel ball back inward to release the engagement with the steel ball.
