Claim Text:
1. A rotational force transmitting apparatus comprising a clutch mechanism and a planetary gear mechanism having a sun gear, the rotational force transmitting apparatus being configured to couple the clutch mechanism and the planetary gear mechanism to each other in an axial direction in a fixing member to output from an output rotation member of the clutch mechanism a rotational force inputted to the sun gear of the planetary gear mechanism, wherein: the clutch mechanism includes the clutch mechanism is configured such that the planetary gear mechanism includes the fixing member has an inner circumferential surface having a substantially columnar shape, the inner circumferential surface on one side in the axial direction constituting the housing chamber, the inner circumferential surface on the other side in the axial direction constituting a first internal gear engaging with the plurality of first planetary gears, wherein the clutch mechanism includes in a case where the input rotation member is rotated toward the other side, the pressure transmitting parts are abutted against the engagement elements to thereby push the engagement elements, and thereafter the pressure transmitting parts are abutted against end surfaces in the circumferential direction of the recesses to thereby push the output rotation member.
