Torque monitor

Reliability problems in a torque monitor are reduced in a simplified construction including a housing (30) journalling first and second coaxial shafts (34), (42). The second shaft (42) is mounted for axial movement within the housing (30), and a sleeve (58) has a threaded connection (56), (60) to th...

description Reliability problems in a torque monitor are reduced in a simplified construction including a housing (30) journalling first and second coaxial shafts (34), (42). The second shaft (42) is mounted for axial movement within the housing (30), and a sleeve (58) has a threaded connection (56), (60) to the second shaft (42), and a spline connection (36), (62) to the first shaft (34). A switch (82), (84), is mounted in the housing (30) and a switch actuator (80) is mounted for movement towards and away from the switch (82), (84) to change the condition of the same. A shoulder (68) on the second shaft (42) may engage and drive the switch actuator (80) upon axial movement of the second shaft (42) in one direction, while a shoulder (96), (102) on the sleeve (58) may engage and drive the switch actuator (80) upon axial movement of the sleeve (58) in the one direction and relative to the other shaft (34) to provide an indication of relative movement between the shafts (34) and (42).
