Abstract
A torque limiter includes a first meshing portion provided at a surface of an input shaft, a plate including a second meshing portion which is configured to mesh with the first meshing portion, and a disc spring portion integrally rotatable with an output shaft. The disc spring portion includes an engaging portion engaging with the plate. The disc spring portion is deflected to displace the engaging portion in a direction opposite to the plate in a case where a load equal to or greater than a set value is applied to the disc spring portion while pressing the plate via the engaging portion so as to bias the second meshing portion towards the first meshing portion.
