ABSTRACT:
A one-way clutch comprises an outer race where inner surface is formed with a raceway surface and an annular groove; an inner race whose outer surface is formed with a raceway surface; a plurality of wedge members interposed between the outer and inner races about the annular space defined therebetween; and a retainer comprising an outwardly extended annular projected portion engageable with the annular groove and a pushing member for causing the annular projected portion to elastically press against the annular groove. The retainer member is interposed between the outer and inner races so as to retain the plurality of wedge members, the outer race is provided with a stopper for limiting the displacement of the projected portion after the engagement thereof with the annular grove. The outer diameter of the projected portion is greater than the inner diameter of the raceway surface of the outer race.
