Abstract
A stator support structure supports a stator of a torque converter on a stationary shaft, and includes an inner race and an annular one-way plate. The inner race is coupled to the stationary shaft to be non-rotatable relative thereto, and has a plurality of protrusions on the outer peripheral surface thereof. The annular one-way plate is mounted to the inner peripheral surface of the stator to be non-rotatable relative thereto, and has a plurality of pawls. The pawls are configured to prevent relative rotation between the stator and the inner race by making contact with first end surfaces formed as one rotation-directional end surfaces of the plural protrusions when the stator is rotated in a first direction. The pawls are configured to allow relative rotation between the stator and the inner race by elastically deforming in a radial direction to climb over the protrusions when the stator is rotated in a second direction.
