ABSTRACT:
In an intermittent torque transmission device, an input shaft is provided to have a cylindrical cam face. An output shaft has a wheel provided in a manner to intersect the input shaft. A plurality of recesses are provided on an upper surface of the wheel along a predetermined base circle. A cam groove is provided on the cylindrical cam face of the input shaft. A spherical ball is rotatably provided in each of the recesses of the wheel while engaging against the cam groove so as to intermittently rotate the wheel of the output shaft in association with the rotational movement of the input shaft.
