<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a one-way clutch capable of bidirectionally idling, which is constructed with a smaller number of components, easy to assemble and inexpensive to manufacture. <P>SOLUTION: A cage holding an intermediate member is switchable into a first position where an inside member or an outside member is bidirectionally rotatable, a second position where it is locked to be non-rotatable in one direction but rotatable in the other direction, and a third position where it is locked to be non-rotatable in the other direction but rotatable in the one direction. The outside member or the inside member and the cage have lock parts for cooperatively determining the first position, the second position or the third position to temporarily lock the cage to one of the first-third positions. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
