Abstract
An anti-reverse actuator mechanism having an actuator (50) associated with a center shaft (15) by mounting on a member (20,70,90) rotatable with the center shaft and having parts frictionally engaging said member whereby there is a yieldable drive connection between the member and actuator and with the driving force therebetween being independent of the force of a control spring associated with the center shaft. The actuator is formed of spring wire and has a pair of sections (65,66) in opposed relation for engaging the member and with an arm (67) extending therefrom into engagement with the anti-reverse device.
