Torque limiting coupling

A torque limiting coupling rotatably arranged around a longitudinal axis A has a coupling hub, drivers, a coupling sleeve and a switching disk. The switching disk is rotatably arranged between a switched-on position and an idling position relative to the coupling hub. The drivers engage the coupling sleeve first recesses in the switched-on position. The drivers engage the switching disk second recesses in the idling position. A first spring mechanism urges the switching disk in the direction towards the switched-on position. A second spring mechanism acts axially on the switching disk and urges the drivers against the coupling sleeve.
