Patent ID: 8813931

Claim:
A free-wheel cage ring, comprising two annular flanged disks ( 1 , 2 ; 11 , 12 ) that extend essentially in a radial direction and that are connected to each other and form an axial intermediate space, the flanged disks ( 1 , 2 ; 11 , 12 ) each having, on a respective facing end, a concentric collar ( 5 ) that is broken by recesses to form at least two guide surfaces facing the recesses, a plurality of clamping bodies ( 4 ; 14 ) that are located between the disks and arranged so that they can pivot in the cage ring and that are biased in a coupling sense by at least one leg spring ( 6 ; 16 ; 26 ; 36 ), the clamping bodies ( 4 ; 14 ) perform, under the effect of a centrifugal force, a pivoting motion acting in a decoupling sense against a spring force, wherein the guide surfaces ( 5 c , 5 d ; 15 ) are spaced apart from inner and outer flanges of the disks, with two of the guide surfaces being allocated to each of the clamping bodies ( 4 , 14 ) in an axial extent, one of the guide surfaces engages each opposite end peripheral region of each of the clamping bodies ( 4 ; 14 ), to guide them at least in a peripheral direction of the flanged disks ( 1 , 2 ; 11 , 12 ), and the collar has a break at least on a radially inner side through which the clamping bodies extend, an axial length of a radially inner clamping surface of each of the clamping bodies is equal to a total length of each of the clamping bodies, and the guide surfaces ( 5 c , 5 d ; 15 ) are each formed integrally in the flanged disks by the recesses located on opposite end faces of the flanged disks ( 1 , 2 ; 11 , 12 ).
