Abstract: The three mode overrunning bi-directional clutch has a first mode where the slipper race and fixed race are coupled and power is not transmitted between the inner input shaft and the outer shaft. A second mode where the slipper race is uncoupled from the fixed race and the slipper race engages the outer shaft to provide power transmission between the inner shaft and the outer shaft. The third mode couples the slipper race to the fixed race but uses a brake to provide radial force against the slipper race to allow for partial engagement between the slipper race and the outer shaft. This third mode allows for a smooth transition between the first mode and the second mode.

A second reservoir space is formed in the pressure piston axially above the first reservoir space and is filled by second passages in the housing and pressure piston. From the second reservoir space a hydraulic medium is conducted to the cam follower via an opening in the head. The reservoir spaces are separated by a ball around which the internal wall of the pressure piston is wrapped.

Abstract: A process for producing a sliding bearing bush in a cast component of lightweight metal, preferably a tensioning lever of a belt tensioner. The process includes the following steps: a die, which forms the seat for a sliding bearing bush to be pressed in and has radially outer groove drawing noses, is inserted into a lightweight metal pressure die-casting die. After the liquid lightweight metal has been injected into the lightweight metal pressure die-casting die and subsequently solidified, the die is then drawn out of the lightweight metal pressure die-casting die in such a way that an aperture, which has a groove profile, is formed as a seat for the sliding bearing bush to be pressed in.

The running faces of the rollers roll in two groove-shaped raceways which are formed in the inner side of the outer bearing ring and in the outer side of the inner bearing ring. At least one of the axial rims which delimit the groove-shaped raceways is reduced in radial height such that the radial bearing can be equipped with an increased number of spherical rollers in an axial assembly process.
