ABSTRACT:
A roller clutch cage includes a provision for centralizing circumferential stress in the cage, thereby allowing the cage to shrink or expand without bellmouthing. Ribs on the cage hit the cam race as the cage is installed, circumferentially stressing the cage, and allowing it to shrink or expand enough to be pushed onto the cam race far enough that the ribs can snap into a groove. Since the roller pockets stay parallel to the axis, the pathway race need not be present to prevent roller dislodging, and the pathway race can be added as a last step.
