Abstract
In one embodiment a device for tightening and loosening a securing device is provided. The device includes a housing, a shaft, and a clutch assembly. In one embodiment, the clutch assembly includes a clutch activation member, a first friction member coupled to the clutch activation member, and a second friction member coupled to the shaft. When the clutch activation member is in a first position, the clutch activation member engages the first friction member with the second friction member for transmission of torque from the first friction member to the second friction member. When the clutch activation member is in the second position, the clutch activation member disengages the first friction member from the second friction member to prevent transmission of the torque from the first friction member to the second friction member.
