Abstract

A coupling release component for releasabley coupling a shaft of a motor to a further shaft for rotation of the further shaft by the motor shaft having a rotation lock component having an axially disposed first gripping device for connecting the lock to the shaft for inducing rotation of said lock by said motor, a slip coupling component having a second gripping component disposed radially outwardly relative to the first gripping component configured to releasabley interlock with a corresponding third gripping component of a further coupling component for connecting the coupling release component to said further shaft for the rotation thereof and a resilient mounting component mounting said second gripping component to said first gripping component so as to be able to exert a radially outward force on the second gripping component so as to radially bias the second gripping component into interlocking engagement with the third gripping component.
