Abstract
A selectable one-way clutch includes a fixed plate, a rotatable plate, a switching plate, an arm member, and an actuator including an operating shaft member for moving the arm member. Lubricating oil is interposed between any adjacent two of the fixed plate, the switching plate and the rotatable plate. Where a first distance is a distance from a rotation center of the switching plate to a contact point of an operating portion of the arm member and a first contact portion of the operating shaft member in normal switching operation from a disengaged state to an engaged state and a second distance is a distance from the rotation center of the switching plate to a contact point of the operating portion of the arm member and a second contact portion of the operating shaft member in switching plate erroneous operation, the second distance is larger than the first distance.
