#CMT# #/CMT# The device (1) has a spring biasing element (55) biasing multiple ratchet teeth (51) of a release element (50) or slide to engage with multiple ratchet teeth (49) of a follower (40) in a protective or torque limiting mechanism (4). The release element is forced to slide onto the biasing element and move away from the follower with a sliding engagement among the ratchet teeth when torque applied to a housing (30) and onto a terminal post (12) is greater than preset torque value of the biasing element to release the follower. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Electric cable connecting device. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The protective or torque limiting mechanism prevents a rotating, driving, operating or actuating device from being over rotated or over turned and damaged by a user. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a partial exploded perspective view of an electric cable connecting device. 1 : Electric cable connecting device 4 : Protective or torque limiting mechanism 12 : Terminal post 30 : Housing 40 : Follower 49 : Ratchet teeth of follower 50 : Release element 51 : Ratchet teeth of release element 55 : Spring biasing element. |
