Abstract
A driving force transmission mechanism include a carrier, an input gear, first gears, second gears, an output gear, a clutch portion configured to integrate one of the input and output gears with the carrier or configured to disintegrate the one gear and the carrier, and an actuator configured to restrict rotation of the clutch. When the actuator does not restrict the rotation of the clutch portion, the input gear, the first gears, the second gears and the output gear are integrated with each other, and the output gear is rotated together with the input gear in a first direction. When the actuator restricts the rotation of the clutch portion, a rotational driving force is transmitted from the input gear to the output gear via the first gars and the second gears, and the output gear is rotated in a second direction opposite to the first direction.
