Abstract
A rotary power transmission device includes a housing, a clutch, an actuator and a retaining body. The housing has an annular surface and an interior in which multiple components are received for rotation. The clutch is received within the housing and has a clutch ring selectively engageable with one of said multiple components. The actuator has a limit surface, a coil and a plunger driven for movement along an axis and relative to the clutch, and the plunger is received over and movable along the annular surface. The retaining body has a blocking surface radially overlapped with the limit surface and arranged to be contacted by the limit surface to prevent removal of the plunger from the annular surface.
