Clamping roller overrunning clutch and method of making same

摘要

A clamping roller overrunning clutch, each of whose clamping rollers (4) is urged against clamping tracks (5) by at least one arc-shaped spring element, preferably a leaf spring (6), whose arc ends (11) are suspended against the clamping rollers (4) whereby a proper spring loading of the clamping rollers (4) is assured by the fact that a support surface (10) for the arc-shaped spring element (6) extending between the arc ends (11) is made so that a support contact (A, A, A) between the support surface (10) and the arc-shaped spring element (6) migrates toward the arc ends (11) of the arc-shaped spring element (6) with increasing load and a method of making the said clutch.
