る。2. Description of the Related Art For example, a one-way clutch using a sprag for one-way rotation transmission is widely used, and there are two types of sprags, a disengage type (Fig. 1) and an engage type (Fig. 2). There is
Both are determined by the behavior of the sprag when the outer ring rotates.

から離れる。In the former disengagement type sprag, when the center of gravity G of the sprag 1 is on the left side of the normal line at the contact point A of the outer ring 2 in FIG. 1, the centrifugal force C resists the spring force F of the ribbon spring 3. And rotates clockwise around the contact point A, and the sprag 1 separates from the raceway surface of the inner ring 4.

2 is the center of gravity G of the sprag 11 in FIG.
When it is on the right side of the normal line at the contact point A with the outer ring 2, the centrifugal force C acts, and the sprag 11 is rotated around the contact point A in the counterclockwise direction in FIG.
When is rotated counterclockwise, the sprag height increases, so that the inner ring 4 and the sprag 11 come into contact with each other.

及びピーリング現象が発生し、短寿命であるという問題
がある。As described above, since the sprags 1 and 11 are always in contact with the inner ring raceway surface by the ribbon spring 3 in a slipping state, the lubrication conditions, the inner ring raceway surface and the sprag cams are kept. Depending on conditions such as surface roughness of the surfaces, wear and peeling phenomena occur on the inner ring raceway surface 4 and the cam surfaces of the sprags 1 and 11, and there is a problem that the life is short.

好とは言えない。It is well known that the surface roughness of the cam surface and the inner ring raceway surface of the sprags 1 and 11 is an important factor. It was thought that the finish should be as smooth as possible, but normally, the finished surface of the cam surface is a tumbler finish and Rmax is 2 to 4 μm, which is not a good contact surface.

得ることができる。When the outer surface of the sprag is formed into a random minute rough surface, and the surface roughness of this minute surface is expressed by the parameter RMS, RMS is set to 0.09 μm or more, and the parameter SK value is adjusted in the width direction. Since the circumferential direction is also negative, the oil film formation rate on the sprag cam surface is improved and a sufficient oil film thickness is secured to suppress metal contact at the contact part, regardless of the surface roughness of the mating inner ring raceway surface. There is no peeling damage or wear on the surface, and a long service life of the clutch can be obtained.

This proves that there was no abnormality for 600 hours against the inner raceway surface of ax 2 to 4 μm, the durability was very excellent, and the oil film was sufficiently formed. It should be noted that there is no difference between the inner ring raceway surfaces in which both of them are in a familiar state in which the projections of the surface roughness are slightly removed.

Excellent, regardless of whether or not the finished surface roughness of the inner ring raceway is good, the oil film formation is good, the metal contact rate is small, and it has the effect of minimizing surface damage. Therefore, the durability of the clutch using the sprag can be significantly improved.
