ABSTRACT:
An inexpensive and small size clutch transmits variable torque. The clutch comprises a rotary shaft; a rotor coaxial to the rotary shaft; a clutch member provided for the rotor, the clutch member reversibly switching the rotor from an engaged state to a free state with respect to the rotary shaft; a biasing member for biasing the clutch member so as to cause the rotor to be in the engaged state; and a movable body being movable in the axial direction of the rotary shaft. The movable body presses the clutch member against the biasing force of the biasing member so as to cause the rotor to be in the free state when the movable body is moved by a driving device. Thus, if there are a plurality of rotors, they can be rotated by one motor. The rotor can be made free with respect to the rotary shaft by moving the movable body.
