Abstract

An SOWC configured to prevent an unintentional engagement is provided. A pawl comprises a strut that is pushed up toward a notch through an aperture of a selector plate, a stopper plate protruding laterally from a rear end side of the strut, and a first inclined face formed on the stopper plate to incline downwardly from the rear end side toward the leading end side of the strut. A side plate is formed along each long side of the aperture to protrude toward the pocket plate, and the second inclined face is formed on the side plate to be brought into contact to the first inclined face.
