Abstract

899,676. Overload release clutches. BIRFIELD ENGINEERING Ltd. Feb. 5, 1959 [Feb. 12, 1958], No. 4525/58. Class 80 (2). An overload release clutch comprises rollers 7 in radial slots in a driving sleeve 2 which are pressed by a spring ring 8 into engagement with grooves in a driven part 3 of the clutch, and balk rings 13, 14 are freely mounted in circumferential grooves in the part 3 and frictionally driven by the sleeve 2. The balk rings cooperate with reduced end portions 7a, 7b of the rollers and have recesses 16 which in the driving position align with the grooves of the driven part to permit entry of the clutch rollers 7. When overload causes the rollers to ride out of the grooves, the balk rings are rotated forwardly by the sleeve 2 against a limit-stop 15, shifting the recesses and grooves out of alignment to prevent the rollers from re-entering the grooves. The clutch is re-set by rotating the sleeve 2 backwardly relative to the part 3. The sleeve 2 is fast with jaws la of a universal joint. Specification 876,592 is referred to in the Provisional Specification.
