Abstract
A one-way clutch includes a first gear, a second gear, a transmission unit, and a stretchable member. The first gear has one side in an axial direction on which a first ratchet portion is formed. The second gear includes a shaft portion, an outer peripheral portion, and a connection wall. The connection wall has a surface extending in the axial direction and connects between the shaft portion and the outer peripheral portion. The transmission unit transmits a torque of one of the first gear and the second gear to another by rotating forward around the shaft. The transmission unit includes a second ratchet portion that fits into the first ratchet portion on the first gear side. The transmission unit includes a contact portion that contacts the surface on the second gear side. The stretchable member presses the second gear to the transmission unit in a shrunk state.
