A clutch includes inner and outer races, each with pluralities of teeth. A pawl is supported on the inner race and a shift ring disposed outward of the pawl defines pawl engagement surfaces on an inner perimeter. Pins engage cam surfaces formed in the ring and outer race. When the inner race rotates faster than the outer race, the pawl engages the ring causing relative movement between the ring and outer race that moves the pins radially inward along the cam surfaces to locate the pins between corresponding teeth on the races and rotatably couple the races. When the outer race rotates faster than the inner race, the ring moves relative to the outer race and the pins move radially outward along the cam surfaces away from the corresponding teeth to uncouple the races, disengage the ring from the pawl and allow the outer race to overrun the inner race.

A permanent magnet activated wrap spring clutch (10). A coil spring (32) surrounds an input hub (14) and an output hub (22) and is selectively engaged to wrap down upon the hubs for the transmittal of torque. In an unpowered, engaged condition of the clutch, a permanent magnet (40) attracts a control collar (38) attached to the spring into frictional engagement with a rotating input element (20). Rotation of the control collar causes the spring to wrap down from its somewhat oversized diameter at rest to grip the hubs. In a powered, disengaged condition of the clutch, an energized coil (44) causes the magnetic field of the permanent magnet to move away from the control collar, thereby removing the frictional engagement and allowing the spring to unwrap. The clutch provides torque transmittal without electrical power and ensures complete disengagement regardless of a low momentum or high drag on the output.
