A torque limiting adjuster (1) with a housing (2), an output shaft (3), a driving gear (4), a driven gear (5) and a biasing element (6). The housing (2) comprises a main opening (21) and first threading means (22, 23). The driven gear (5) comprises a gearing portion (51) adapted to be engaged with the driving gear (4). The biasing element (6) engages the driving gear (4) and the driven gear (5). The output shaft (3) further comprises a first linear guiding portion (32) oriented in a main direction and second threading means (33) coupled with the first threading means (22, 23) of the housing (2). The driven gear (5) further comprises a second linear guiding portion (52) slidably coupled with the first linear guiding portion (32), the second linear guiding portion (52) being configured to transmit the rotation of the driven gear (5) to the first linear guiding portion (32) when the driven gear (5) rotates driven by the driven gear (4). When the driven gear (5) is forced to rotate beyond the predetermined limit position, the driven gear (5) exerts a reaction force on the driving gear (4) that overcomes the biasing element (6).
