Abstract: A rotation transmission device includes a control retainer and a rotary retainer having bars arranged circumferentially alternating with each other such that pockets are defined between the adjacent pairs of bars. A pair of rollers are mounted in each pocket with an elastic member disposed between the pair of rollers such that the pair of rollers are pushed by the respective bars to their respective disengaged positions when the control retainer and the rotary retainer rotate relative to each other. A spring holder is fitted on an input shaft while abutting one axial end surface of an inner ring. The spring holder has spring support pieces on the outer periphery thereof to prevent radially outward movement of the elastic members. The spring support pieces are plate-shaped members disposed radially outwardly of the elastic members to extend in the axial direction in parallel to the outer periphery of the inner ring.

Abstract: A variable compression ratio mechanism of an internal combustion engine includes an operation element, an input actuator, and a reverse input torque cutoff clutch. The reverse input torque cutoff clutch includes a fixed member, a movable member, clearance, a wedge member, and a moving device. A peripheral surface of the fixed member is formed such that the clearance is formed with: a rotation prevention area that prevents the movable member from rotating in a reverse input torque acting direction. When the movable member moves in the direction to change a mechanical compression ratio, the moving device moves the wedge member from the rotation prevention area to the rotation allowable area in an opposite direction and holds the wedge member in the rotation allowable area.

Abstract: A mechanism with an inner race, which has cams, an outer race and rollers between the cams and the outer race. The inner race has a first notch while the outer race has a second notch with a narrow portion and a wider portion. A member is disposed in the first and second notches. Positioning of the member in the first notch and the narrow portion of the second notch inhibits relative rotation between the inner and outer races and power is not transmitted between the outer race and a power transmitting member, such as a gear. Positioning of the member in the first notch and the wider portion of the second notch permits some relative rotation between the inner and outer races to cause the cams to urge the rollers outwardly so that the outer race frictionally engages the power transmitting member to facilitate transmission of rotary power therebetween.

Abstract: One-way clutches OWC1 and OWC2 are provided on output sides of transmissions TM1 and TM2, and the transmissions TM1 and TM2 mechanically lock when the output member 121 of the one-way clutches OWC1 and OWC2 is reversely rotated to the backward side. Clutch mechanisms CL1 and CL2 are interposed between the output member 121 and a driving target member 11 connected to a driving wheel 2. According to uphill start conditions, a controller 5 makes any one of the clutch mechanisms CL1 and CL2 enter ON state when a vehicle-backward-movement prevention control is determined to be required and the controller 5 makes the clutch mechanisms CL1 and CL2 enter OFF state when the vehicle-backward-movement prevention control is determined to be not required. Thus, it is possible to provide a vehicle driving system capable of performing a hill hold assist function with a simple control.
