Abstract

A selectable one-way clutch that can prevent unintentional rotation of a selector plate by a drag torque is provided. In the selectable one-way clutch, a selector plate having a first aperture for letting through a strut is interposed between a fixed plate and a rotary plate while being allowed to rotate between an engagement position and a disengagement position. The selectable one-way clutch comprises: a protector plate interposed between the rotary plate and the selector plate; and a second aperture formed on the protector plate to let through the strut when the selector plate is rotated to the engagement position.
