2. Description of the Related Art For example, in a power window of an automobile,
Normally, the rotational power of the drive motor is decelerated by a worm and wheel mechanism and transmitted to an output shaft that opens and closes the window. Since the rotation space of the drive motor is decelerated by the worm and wheel mechanism, it is necessary to use a small motor because the installation space is small. Compared to the low rotation speed and high torque of the output shaft required to open and close the window. This is because the drive motor has a high rotation speed and low torque.

When the rotary drive source starts rotating, the rotational power is transmitted to the holder, and the holder rotates. Then, the inner ring receives rotational power from the retainer via the elastic member to rotate, but at this time, the inner ring receives viscous shear resistance from the viscous fluid interposed between the inner ring and the rotating member brake-fixed to the stationary system. Therefore, the elastic member bends in the rotation direction, and relative rotation (rotation delay of the inner ring) occurs between the retainer and the inner ring by that amount.

When relative rotation occurs between the cage and the inner ring, the torque transmission member housed in the pocket of the cage is pushed in the rotational direction by the cage and engages with the wedge space in that direction. As a result, rotational power is transmitted from the retainer to the outer ring via the torque transmission member, and the outer ring rotates integrally with the retainer and the inner ring.

On the other hand, when the inner ring rotates, the rotating member fixed to the stationary system by braking receives viscous shear resistance from the viscous fluid interposed between the inner ring and the rotating member. This viscous shear resistance increases with the rotation of the inner ring and acts on the rotating member as turning force (rotating torque). Therefore, the rotating member stops with respect to the stationary system as long as this rotational power is smaller than the braking force of the stationary system, but when this rotational power becomes larger than the braking force, it starts rotating with respect to the stationary system and becomes steady rotation. After the shift, it rotates following the inner wheel with a delay corresponding to the braking force. When the rotation drive source stops and the cage and the inner ring stop rotating, the viscous shear resistance of the viscous fluid disappears, so the elastic restoring force of the elastic member causes the inner ring to rotate relative to the cage, and the circumferential position of both Is centered. When the inner ring is centered with respect to the cage, the torque transmission member separates from the wedge space, and the outer ring is released from the input system.

In the above-mentioned structure, the outer ring serves as the output shaft. However, when the inner ring serves as the output shaft, the outer ring and the cage are connected in the rotational direction by the elastic member, and the outer ring and the rotating member are connected. The same effect can be obtained by interposing a viscous fluid in.

When relative rotation occurs between the cage 4 and the inner ring 1, as shown in FIG. 5, the roller 3 accommodated in the pocket 4c of the cage 4 is rotated by the cage 4 (in the cage 4). In the direction of rotation) to engage the wedge space in that direction. At this time, when the contact points of the roller 3 with the cam surface 1b and the inner peripheral surface of the outer ring 2 are C1 and C2, respectively, and the force with which the retainer 4 pushes the roller 3 is F, a force F in the normal direction F
1 and F2 generate frictional forces μF1 and μF2 (μ: friction coefficient) at the contact points C1 and C2, respectively. By these frictional forces, the outer ring 2 is passed from the cage 4 through the rollers 3.
Rotational power is transmitted to the outer ring 2 and the cage 4 and the inner ring 1
Rotates together with. The rotation of the outer ring 2 opens and closes a window (not shown).

On the other hand, when the inner ring 1 is rotated, the shaft member 8 is
A viscous shear resistance is received from the high-viscosity fluid 10 interposed between and. This viscous shear resistance increases with the rotation of the inner ring 1, and acts on the shaft member 8 as a turning force (rotating torque). The shaft member 8 is stopped with respect to the casing 5 while the turning force is smaller than the braking force of the braking member 9, but when the turning force is larger than the braking force, the shaft member 8 starts rotating with respect to the casing 5 and shifts to steady rotation. After that, the inner ring 1 is rotated with a delay corresponding to the braking force of the braking member 9 with a delay. Therefore, after the steady rotation shift (after the clutch is switched to the torque transmission state), the viscous shear resistance of the high-viscosity fluid 10 becomes a predetermined value corresponding to the braking force of the braking member 9, and does not become larger than this. The viscous shear resistance of the high-viscosity fluid 10 is essentially an element necessary for causing relative rotation between the cage 4 and the inner ring 1, that is, for automatically switching the clutch to the torque transmission state. , It is desirable to be as small as possible after switching the clutch. If the braking force of the braking member 9 is K3,
K3 ≧ K2 (viscous shear resistance when switching clutch)>
The relationship of K1 (elastic force of the centering spring 12) is necessary, and the braking force K3 may be set to the minimum value within the range that satisfies this relationship. In this embodiment, the braking member 9 is O
The braking force K3 is set to an optimum value by using a ring and adjusting the interference of the O-ring. However, the braking member 9 is not particularly limited to the O-ring as long as it can exert a predetermined braking force on the shaft member 8. Further, the braking force is not limited to the frictional force.

The motor 7 stops, and the cage 4 and the inner ring 1
When the rotation is stopped, the viscous shear resistance of the high-viscosity fluid 10 disappears, so that the inner ring 1 relatively rotates with respect to the retainer 4 by the elastic restoring force of the centering spring 12 and is centered at the neutral position shown in FIGS. It When the inner ring 1 relatively rotates to the neutral position, it receives viscous shear resistance from the high-viscosity fluid 10, but since the viscous shear resistance is proportional to the relative rotation speed, the inner ring 1 is slower than the motor 7, It can rotate. In this way, when the inner ring 1 is centered with respect to the cage 4, the roller 3 is released from the wedge space and returns to the neutral position, so that the outer ring 2 becomes free with respect to the cage 4 and the inner ring 1, and the input system is released. Is released from. Therefore, in this state, the outer ring 2 can be manually rotated, and thus the window can be manually opened and closed even when the motor 7 is stopped.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, the flat cam surface 1 is used.
Instead of b, a groove-shaped cam surface 2b is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the outer ring 2. A wedge space is formed between the cam surface 2b of the outer ring 2 and the outer peripheral surface of the inner ring 1 in both forward and reverse rotation directions. In this case, an elastic member corresponding to the centering spring 12 is interposed between the cage 4 and the outer ring 2 and the outer ring 2
By interposing the high-viscosity fluid 10 between the rotary member corresponding to the shaft member 8 (braking fixed to the stationary system), it is possible to obtain the same effect as the structure of the above-described embodiment. Alternatively, although not shown, a groove-shaped cam surface may be formed on the outer peripheral surface of the inner ring 1 instead of the flat cam surface 1b.
