Abstract
A one-piece synthetic plastic cage for retention of clamping rollers in an overrunning roller clutch has two spaced-apart coaxial rims, axially parallel bars extending between the rims and defining roller pockets, and a discrete leaf spring for each bar. The springs are integral with one of the rims and are located radially outwardly of the corresponding bars so that they can bypass such bars by moving in the circumferential direction of the rims. One leg of each spring is integral with the one rim, and the other leg is integral with the one leg and has a free end which bears against the clamping roller in the corresponding pocket.
