Abstract: A first ball ramp half includes a first ball ramp plate grounded within a housing against translation that defines first portions of respective one or more ramped ball receiving recesses. A second ball ramp half includes a gear plate supported within the housing for rotation relative to the first ball ramp plate and grounded within the housing against translation relative to the first ball ramp plate that has gear teeth, a second ball ramp plate supported within the housing for rotation relative to the first ball ramp plate that defines complementary second portions of the respective one or more ramped ball receiving recesses, and a joint coupling the gear plate to the second ball ramp plate. The joint imparts rotation of the gear plate to the second ball ramp plate, and is permissive of translation of the second ball ramp plate relative to the first ball ramp plate.

Abstract translation: 第一球斜坡半部包括接合在壳体内的平移的第一球坡板，其限定相应的一个或多个斜坡球接收凹部的第一部分。 第二球坡半部分包括支撑在壳体内的齿轮板，用于相对于第一球坡道板旋转并相对于具有齿轮齿的第一球坡道板在壳体内接地，第二球坡道板支撑在壳体内 相对于限定相应的一个或多个斜坡球接收凹部的互补的第二部分的第一滚珠坡道板旋转，以及将齿轮板联接到第二滚珠坡道板的接头。 接头将齿轮板的旋转赋予第二滚珠坡道板，并且允许第二滚珠坡道板相对于第一滚珠坡道板平移。
