ABSTRACT:
A pivotal crank is positioned with respect to the output cam of a torque limiter such that upon torque limiter operation the resulting translation of the cam pivots the crank. Attached to the crank is a flag arm which is normally retained by a spring clip. Pivotal motion of the crank causes disengagement of the flag arm from the spring clip thereby indicating torque limiter operation. The flag arm remains in the disengaged position, despite subsequent absence of limiter operation, until it is manually reset.
