Abstract
A one-way clutch includes: a plurality of engaging elements which restrict relative rotation toward the other side of a circumferential direction by engagement with an inner ring outer circumferential surface and an outer ring inner circumferential surface and which allows the relative rotation along the other side of the circumferential direction by releasing the engagement; and a ring-shaped cage which holds the engaging elements. In a clutch unit, a positioning member which is capable of contact a side surface of the cage in an axial direction and which positions the cage along the axial direction is provided between the one-way clutch and a rolling bearing.
