Abstract
The article offers design features and results of kinematic and force studies of a ball overrunning clutch, which can be effectively used for screwdrivers for screwing and unscrewing threaded connections at increased speed. It is known that in such mechanisms, the tightening force of the threaded connections is controlled by the tightening force of the springs, which over time lose the initial amount of elastic force. In order to improve the processes of installation and disassembly of technical equipment, several overrunning ball couplings have been developed and patented, which transmit torque based on the principle of engagement of balls located in the grooves of the leading and driven half-couplings. The conducted studies confirmed that the developed safety ball couplings can be effectively used as devices for limiting the amount of torque in screwdrivers during assembly and disassembly operations.
