Locking device
A locking device has a collar body, a roller cage, multiple rollers, and a clamping set. The collar body has a chamber formed inside the collar body and multiple concave recesses formed in an inner periphery of the collar body. The roller cage is mounted in the chamber. The clamping set has multiple clamping blocks annularly disposed within the roller cage. Each one of the multiple clamping blocks is curved and has multiple second concave recesses formed in an outer peripheral surface of the clamping block. The multiple rollers are rotatably mounted to the roller cage and are respectively received by the multiple first concave recesses and the multiple second concave recesses. Each one of the multiple rollers is rotatable along a corresponding one of the multiple first concave recesses and a corresponding one of the multiple second concave recesses.
