A torque restriction mechanism is provided by which torque cutoff and torque transmission can be reliably performed without being affected by a rotation state of the drive unit, and damage to a collision object can be reduced even with a simple configuration. The torque restriction mechanism includes a first clutch and a second clutch. The first clutch cuts off torque to a driven unit when reaction torque at a stationary portion of a motor equals or exceeds a first value. The second clutch that transmits torque in accordance with a rotation state of a rotor of the motor, cuts off torque to the driven unit when the reaction torque equals or exceeds a second value larger than the first value.

A high-lift system for an aircraft incudes at least one mechanical torque limiting device, which includes a visual trip indicator for visually signaling a torque limiter trip, the high-lift-system further comprising an RFID tag device, which is configured to be switched into a functional state, in which it is readable by an external RFID tag reader, and into a nonfunctional state, in which it is not readable by an external RFID tag reader, and a coupling device, which is electrically connectable to the RFID tag device. The coupling device is configured to be physically coupled with the visual trip indicator, and to switch the RFID tag device into the functional state, if the visual trip indicator signals a trip, and into the nonfunctional state, if the visual trip indicator does not signal a trip.

A driving head of an electric gardening machine includes a base, a driving assembly, a clutch member and a transmission member. The base defines an axial direction. The driving assembly is disposed on the base and includes a motor assembly and a driving rod. The motor assembly and the driving rod are in a rotation-connecting relationship. The clutch member is sleeved with the driving rod and slidable relative to the driving rod in the axial direction to be in a first position or a second position. The transmission member is rotatably connected to the base. The clutch member is in rotational interference with and engaged with the transmission member when the clutch member is located in the first position. The clutch member is free of rotational interference with the transmission member when the clutch member is located in the second position.

There is provided an indicator system for a torque limiter. The system comprises a first component extending around an axis (A) and comprising one or more radially extending cam surfaces, and a second component in combination with a third component. The third component is fixed against rotation relative to the second component, but is axially movable relative to the second component. The third component comprises one or more notches, each receiving one of the radially extending cam surfaces. Upon relative rotation between the first component and the combination of the second component and the third component, a surface of each of the notches is configured to ride up a corresponding cam surface of the first component, causing the third component to move axially away from the second component.
