Product description

The item being considered is a Roller Type One Way Clutch (Item Code 45689-26700), which incorporates an outer race and is assembled into an automatic transmission. It mechanically transmits power in one direction in the first gear and stops the power in other gears, without the need for external power, such as hydraulic control. Subsequently, it prevents the reverse rotation. The roller clutch is connected to the planetary gear of the automatic transmission. The outer race of the roller clutch is constructed of steel and measures 178 millimeters (mm) in external diameter. It controls the movement of the roller by narrowing the space in circumferential direction. The roller is made of steel and measures 6 mm in diameter and 15 mm in length. It transmits (or seizes) the torque according to the movement of the roller between the inner and the outer races. The spring is made of steel and measures 13 mm in length. It gives spring force to the rollers that enables each roller to transmit torque at the same time. The block bearing is 11.4 mm in length, and constructed of sintered-copper. It maintains the concentricity of the inner and outer races. The cage measures 157 mm in diameter and made of polyamide. The spring is assembled to the cage, which maintains the position of the roller.
