Abstract: A torque transmission mechanism (1) comprises an outer body (10) defining a cavity (12) and an inner body (30) located at least partially inside the cavity and able to rotate therein. A plurality of rollers (22, 24, 26) located between the outer and inner bodies interact with cam surfaces (14a, 16a, 18a, 20a) so that rotation of the inner body in a first direction is substantially unimpeded but rotation in the opposite direction is prevented or impeded by interaction of rollers with one or more cam surfaces. One of the rollers (18) is larger than at least one other roller and is located in a recess formed in one of the outer and inner bodies. In one embodiment the recess (18) is formed in a part of the outer body which has a greater wall thickness, excluding the effect of the recess than the rest of the outer body, so that the larger roller is accommodated without adding bulk to the outer body.

Abstract: A method of fabricating clutch races for one-way clutch mechanis ms includes compacting and sintering a ferrous-based powder metal to near-net shape to produce a core density of between about 6.8 to 7.6 g/cc and a race surface that is near-net shape. The cam surface is cold worked in a manner that locally increases the density at the surface to develop a highly densified layer of essentially fully densified material and with a final surface finish that, after heat treatment, is ready to use in a one-way clutch application without further working. Both the inner and outer clutch races of one-way clutch mechanisms can be formed in this fashion and yield races that exhibit excellent strength, toughness, fatigue strength and wear resistance.
