- the radial width of the outer peripheral portion 47 is smaller than the width of the connecting portion 46 in the direction orthogonal to the direction in which the connecting portion 46 extends. According to this configuration, when a torque of a predetermined level or more is applied to the ratchet holder 41, the outer peripheral portion 47 having a relatively small width swells outward in the radial direction. For this reason, the ratchet holder 41 is not distorted in the circumferential direction more than a predetermined degree. As a result, even when a large torque acts on the ratchet holder 41, the destruction of the ratchet holder 41 is suppressed.
