Abstract
The present invention relates to a device for the torque limitation in a machine for processing means of payment. The invention has use as a device for limiting torque in a machine for processing means of payment, wherein the device for the torque limitation includes two elements transmitting a torque, the two elements having magnets which are disposed in the two elements with an angular distribution of the same kind, the magnets connecting the two elements to each other in a non-positive fashion, and the connection of the two elements being disrupted when a maximum transmittable torque is exceeded.
Claims6
A device for the limiting torque in a machine for processing payments, comprising:
- two elements arranged to transmit a torque, the two elements having magnets which are disposed therein with an angular distribution of the same kind, the magnets connecting the two elements to each other in a non-positive fashion, wherein the torque transmitting connection of the two elements is interrupted when a maximum transmittable torque is exceeded;
- wherein the two elements have depressions and elevations which are disposed on adjacent surfaces of the two elements with magnets having an angular distribution of the same kind;
- wherein the depressions are cylindrical and the elevations are spherical.
