Title:
力制限アセンブリ
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP5351377
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
An apparatus is shown which comprises first and second mating components with a force limiter located between them. The force limiter includes a band of resilient material 11, with protrusions 14 therealong, and a slip element 2, 2a, 2b. The band 11 and the slip element 2, 2a, 2b are secured to the first mating component with the band 11 arranged to apply a radial force against the slip element 2, 2a, 2b so as to press it against the second mating component. The frictional force between slip element 2, 2a, 2b and the second mating component is insufficient to separate the slip element 2, 2a, 2b and the band 11 from the first mating component, so any slipping that occurs between the mating components happens at the boundary of the slip element 2, 2a, 2b and the second mating component. A desired slip force can be obtained by choosing a slip element 2, 2a, 2b with an appropriate coefficient of friction, rather than by varying the dimensions of the components.
