A method of using a torque limiting device for an electrically powered anchor winch as claimed in any one of claims 1 to 9, characterised by: The method comprises the following steps: S1, torque detection: the strain gauge (7) monitors the torque of the cable main shaft (401) and transmits data to the PLC controller, and the PLC controller controls the motor (2), and the motor (2) stops when the torque is large; S2, mechanical locking: after the hydraulic oil enters the hydraulic cylinder (505), the piston rod (511) is pushed, the tail magnet (508) at the bottom of the piston rod (511) and the rubber damping block (506) are clamped into the limiting groove (404) of the cable main shaft (401), and the cable main shaft (401) is affected by the piston rod (511) to lock the cable main shaft (401) again; S3, linkage buffering: after the piston rod (511) is stretched out, the distance between the tail magnet (508) and the fixed magnet (512) can be adjusted according to the pressure change, the buffer spring (507) is elastically stretched and contracted, cooperates with the hydraulic oil to absorb impact energy, at the same time, the rubber damping block (506) on one side of the tail magnet (508) is extruded to produce elastic deformation, absorbs energy, realizes flexible locking; S4, manual limiting: manually rotating the lever (602), the lever (602) drives the rotating ring (601) to rotate, the rotating ring (601) drives the hydraulic cylinder (505) to rotate, and the piston rod (511) of the hydraulic cylinder (505) is rotated into the limiting groove (404), the limiting screw rod (603) can be inserted into the arc-shaped frame (604), and is screwed with the limiting threaded hole (605) on the support back plate (403), so as to realize manual limiting.
