Freewheel, function - GF27.51-P-5102-04G
Transmission 722.6
Operation
If the inner race (13) of the freewheel is locked and the outer race (12) turns in direction "A", the locking elements (14) adopt a diagonal position on account of their special contours, allowing the freewheel function. The outer race (12) slides over the locking elements (14) with negligible friction.
If the rotation of the outer race (12) changes to direction "B", the locking elements (14) stand up and lock the outer and inner races (12, 13) together.
