An example of the clutch will be described with reference to FIG. 1 of the accompanying drawings. As shown in the drawing, a polygonal cam surface 2 is provided on an outer diameter surface of an inner member 1 and a wedge-shaped gap is formed between the clutch and an inner diameter surface of an outer ring 3. The engaging element 5 such as a needle roller or a sprag is housed in the gap 4, and the engaging element 5 is wedge-engaged by a spring member 8 housed in a pocket 7 of a retainer 6 of the engaging element 5. Energize in a direction to reduce the angle. Inner member 1 and outer ring 3
, In particular, the wedge-shaped gap 4 described above is filled with at least a lubricant 9 for smooth operation of the clutch and prevention of rust.

In the one-way clutch as described above, the tangent of an angle (strut angle) α of half the angle between the tangent lines l 1 and l 2 at the contact points a and b of the engagement element 5, that is, 5
Is smaller than the friction coefficient μ, that is, tan α <μ (1) is a condition under which the clutch operates normally.
If this condition is not satisfied, the clutch will slip.

また、一方向クラッチの許容トルクTとストラット角
αは、 T=Atan α ……(2) の関係がある。
Further, the allowable torque T of the one-way clutch and the strut angle α have a relationship of T = Atan α (2).

Lubricants conventionally used in one-way clutches are low-μ lubricants. For this reason, even if an attempt is made to increase the load capacity, there is a certain limit in satisfying the relationship of equation (1).

そこで、この発明は潤滑剤の作用によりクラッチ作動

Therefore, it is a technical object of the present invention to provide a one-way clutch in which a high μ can be obtained only when the clutch is operated by the action of a lubricant.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the present invention accommodates an engaging element in a gap formed between an inner member and an outer ring, and engages the engaging element between the inner member and the outer ring. In the clutch urged in the direction, the gap is filled with a lubricant exhibiting hard adhesion under a high surface pressure.

FIG. 2 shows a case of a one-way clutch similar to FIG. 1, and the configuration is the same as that of the conventional case. Therefore, the same parts are denoted by the same reference numerals. The difference is that a lubricant 10 that shows a firm adhesion under a high surface pressure is used. Such a hardening lubricant 10 is known as a traction oil or a traction grease, for example, “Santo Truck Grease” manufactured by Monsanto.

「サントトラックグリース」は、合成油を基油として

"Santolk grease" is obtained by adding a consistency improver to a synthetic oil as a base oil, and its typical properties are as follows.

And becomes a glassy solid. That is, there is a property of showing a hard adhesion under a high surface pressure. Therefore, the shear resistance increases and μ increases.

However, when the surface pressure is removed, the liquid immediately returns to the original liquid state, and the physical properties as a normal lubricant are restored.

Therefore, when the above-mentioned lubricant is used, a high μ acts based on the above-mentioned properties of the lubricant 10 when the engagement element 5 is bitten into the wedge-shaped gap 4. Therefore, even if the strut angle α is increased in order to increase the load capacity, the condition of the above-mentioned expression (1) can be satisfied.

Further, in a state where the clutch is not operated, that is, in a free state, the state is the same as the case where the normal lubricant is present.

FIG. 3 shows an example of a two-way clutch, in which an outer ring 3 is fixed to a housing, and an input shaft and an output shaft are connected to an inner member 1 and a retainer 6, respectively. There is also a type in which the outer ring 3 is configured to be rotatable and other input means is engaged with the outer ring 3. FIG. 4 shows an example in which a sprag is used as the engagement element 5.

In this case, the gap 4 ′ is not wedge-shaped but has a constant size in the circumferential direction, and the engagement element 5 is urged in the engagement direction by the pair of spring members 8. The gap 4 'is also filled with the above-described hard-adhesive lubricant 10.
