Patent ID: 7743678

Claim:
A selectable one-way rocker clutch assembly comprising: a first rotatable race defining a plurality of pockets; a second rotatable race radially spaced from and axially aligned with said first race and defining a plurality of teeth; a first plurality of rockers operatively retained by said pockets of said first race, said first plurality of rockers configured to selectively engage said teeth of said second race to resist rotation of said second race relative to said first race in a first direction; a second plurality of rockers operatively retained by said pockets of said first race, said second plurality of rockers configured to selectively engage said teeth of said second race to resist rotation of said second race relative to said first race in a second direction; a selector member operatively engageable with said first and second pluralities of rockers and configured to selectively rotate between at least a first and a second position, said selector member preventing engagement of at least one of said first and second plurality of rockers with said teeth when in said second position, said selector member defining a slot; and an apply plate having a pin that is axially aligned with the slot; wherein the slot is configured such that axial movement of the apply plate causes the pin to urge the selector member to rotate between the first and second positions.
