Abstract
A brake device for braking rotation of an input shaft, comprises a selectively operable trigger brake comprising a preloaded torsion spring rotationally coupled to the input shaft but permitting a limited rotational movement between the trigger brake and the input shaft; and a roller jamming mechanism operable upon the relative rotation between the trigger brake and the input shaft exceeding a predetermined amount to stop rotation of the input shaft upon operation of the trigger brake.
