ABSTRACT:
A torque control system for electrically driven rotating tools capable of always properly and efficiently effecting constant-torque tightening of screws or the like and capable of easily achieving the miniaturization of the whole device and the improvement in torque control accuracy, the torque control system comprising a clutch mechanism that, when a load torque of predetermined value or above acts on a driven shaft joined to the output shaft of an electric motor, operates to cut off the engagement between the output shaft and the driven shaft, a torque setting mechanism that adjusts the engagement point for the clutch mechanism, and a torque detecting mechanism (42) for detecting the clutch operation of the clutch mechanism to effect drive stop control of the electric motor, wherein the torque detecting mechanism (42) is set so that it effects drive stop control of the electric motor simultaneously with the detecting operation thereof in a state in which the clutch operation has been completed as the cam engagement at the cam engagement portion (40a) of the clutch mechanism is completely canceled.
