ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a stator having an inner race 24, a metal outer race 23, a stator carrier 21, a plurality of stator blades, and a one-way clutch 26. The one-way clutch 26 includes rollers 27, plate springs 28, and spring supporters 29. The rollers 27 are disposed in a plurality of clearance gaps defined between the inner and outer races becoming gradually larger in width in radial directions in a first circular direction. The plate springs 28 respectively urge the rollers 27 in the first circular directions. The spring supporters 29 are molded integrally with the stator carrier 21 so as to be fixed in an inner circumferential wall of the outer race 23 and support the plate springs 28.
