Abstract
A power cut/connect device is proposed which is axially compact and is usable in a limited space. The device includes a first input member coupled to a power shaft, an output member mounted coaxially with the first input member, a first two-way clutch provided between the first input member and the output member, a second input member coaxially mounted with the output member, a second two-way clutch provided between the output member and the second input member so as to be disposed coaxially with and around the first two-way clutch, and a control unit for controlling the first and second two-way clutches for interruption and connection of power.
