ABSTRACT:
A one-way clutch has an outer race and an inner race radially spaced apart from each other and concentrically disposed for rotation relative to each other, the outer race having an inner peripheral raceway surface, the inner race being disposed within the outer race and having an annular outer peripheral raceway surface, a plurality of cam type sprags disposed between the outer race and the inner race for transmitting a torque between the outer peripheral raceway surface and the inner peripheral raceway surface, an annular retainer for retaining the sprags, and a spring member for sandwiching the sprags between itself and the retainer and biasing the sprags in a meshing direction. The one-way clutch is further provided with bearings disposed in a circumferential direction among the cam type sprags and frictionally sliding on the inner peripheral surface of the outer race and the outer peripheral surface of the inner race.
