Zusammenfassung: | An overload clutch comprising an input flange and an output flange, said clutch being configured to transmit torque between the input flange and the output flange and to disengage the clutch when the torque exceeds a predetermined threshold, characterised in, that the clutch comprises one or more sensing means at least partially integrated in at least one of the input and output flanges, and that the one or more sensing means are adapted to jointly determine the torque applied to transmitted between the input flange and the output flange of the clutch and to detect the disengagement of the clutch. A device comprising the clutch, a gear unit connected to the input flange, and a motor connected to the gear unit, configured to provide torque to the input flange through the gear unit. |
