AN OVERLOAD COUPLING OR CLUTCH ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An overload clutch or coupling includes a hub section connected to one drive element and a housing connected to another drive element. Plungers are fitted in sockets in the housing such that the shank portions of the plungers project from one side of the housing and conical end faces project from the other side of the housing where they engage with plunger seats on the hub. The hub has pull pin sockets that receive spring- biased pull pins and apply a force to a pressure plate that acts on the projecting shank portions of the plungers to maintain them in the plunger seats. The plungers are displaced from the seats when the torque between the hub and housing exceeds the maximum torque to be transmitted by the coupling or clutch. The housing can slide along the plungers to accommodate floating movement between the driven and driving parts of the clutch or coupling. A keeper plate is attached to the hub to retain the housing against such floating axial movement when desired. A pinion gear carried by a clamp ring attached to the hub meshes with a hub gear for index positioning.
