A roller overrunning clutch generally includes a main gear, a set of rollers, a driving sleeve and a driven gear. The rollers are limited on the main gear under the action of the driving sleeve, and the engagement and disengagement between the main gear and the driven gear are controlled according to the positions of the rollers. The existing roller overrunning clutches have the following problems in actual use: due to the frequent engagement and disengagement between the main gear and the driven gear, the internal rollers and the driving sleeve generate large impacts and vibrations due to rapid acceleration or deceleration, the transmission process has large crosstalk, poor stability, and the components are extremely vulnerable to wear, and the service life is short. Therefore, the existing overrunning clutch is improved and optimized. Summary of the Utility Model
