ABSTRACT:
An actuator system for a two-way overrunning roller clutch system includes a resilient torque transfer element which couples a wheel spindle and an aactuator ring. The torque transfer element minimizes potential damage due to misalignment between actuator and spindle parts. The actuator ring is banded by coiled garter springs to provide for frictional resilient engagement thereof with a clutch friction ring, the latter having its external circumference in mating contact with the internal circumference of the actuator ring. The degree of friction between the actuator and friction rings is controlled by garter spring tension to produce desired clutch actuation response.
