发明名称 POWER TRANSMITTING DEVICE WITH OVERRUNNING DECOUPLER
摘要 A decoupler that includes a hub, a drive member and a one-way clutch and torsionally resilient coupling. The drive member is configured to engage an endless power transmitting element. The one-way clutch and torsionally resilient coupling is disposed in series in a torque path and has a carrier and a wrap spring. The carrier defines a groove. The wrap spring is formed of wire and has an engagement end and a plurality of helical coils. The engagement end is being shorter in overall length than a length of one of the helical coils. The engagement end is received in the groove. The carrier is received in a pocket formed in a rotary member that can be the hub, the drive member, or a component in a torque path between the hub and the drive member. An axial end face of the wire that forms the wrap spring is abutted against an edge of the pocket.

主权项 1. A decoupler comprising: a hub; a drive member that is configured to engage an endless power transmitting element; and a one-way clutch and torsionally resilient coupling having a carrier, a wrap spring, a clutch surface, and at least one spring, the carrier defining a groove, the wrap spring being formed of wire and having an engagement end and a plurality of helical coils, the engagement end being shorter in overall length than a length of one of the helical coils, the engagement end being received in the groove, the helical coils being engaged to the clutch surface and being wound such that when rotary power is transmitted from the one of the hub and the drive member to the other one of the hub and the drive member the helical coils tend to uncoil against the clutch surface, wherein the carrier is received in a pocket formed in a rotary member selected from a group consisting of the hub, the drive member, and a component in a torque path between the hub and the drive member, wherein an axial end face of the wire that forms the wrap spring is abutted against an edge of the pocket.
