Abstract
A rotary power transmission device includes a device housing, a clutch, an actuator and a retainer. The device housing has an interior in which multiple components are received for rotation. The clutch is received within the device housing and has a clutch ring selectively engageable with one of said multiple components. The actuator has a coil and a plunger driven for movement along an axis and relative to the clutch. And the retainer has a first portion that engages the device housing and a second portion that radially overlaps the coil and limits axial movement of the coil relative to the device housing.
