Abstract
A device includes a switching valve that performs switching between a first state of supplying a line pressure to an oil chamber defined by a case and a piston and a second state of discharging (draining) hydraulic oil in the oil chamber. The device also includes a drain check valve that closes (prohibits the hydraulic oil in the oil chamber from being discharged) when the line pressure is supplied to the oil chamber, and opens (allows the hydraulic oil in the oil chamber to be discharged) when the line pressure is not supplied to the oil chamber. The hydraulic oil is discharged from the oil chamber through the switching valve and the drain check valve.
