Freewheel device and freewheel clutch

A freewheel device having

• a first freewheel component,
• a second freewheel component, which is axially coupled to the first freewheel component via an axially effective coupling device, which, when there is relative rotation between the first and second freewheel components in a first rotational direction, connects the first and second freewheel components together for conjoint rotation and, when there is relative rotation in an opposite second rotational direction, releases the first and second freewheel components so that they can rotate relative to each other and which has at least one coupling element which is subjected to a spring force by a spring element,
• wherein the spring element fixes the coupling element on the one hand to the first freewheel component and on the other hand defines a tilting axis about which the coupling element can be tilted against the spring force;
• wherein the spring element has a rectilinear first spring portion bearing against the first freewheel component and running parallel to a first longitudinal axis and has a second spring portion protruding at an angle therefrom;
• wherein the spring element has a fastening portion, via which the spring element is fastened to the coupling element;
• wherein the first spring portion and at least a portion of the fastening portion are coplanar;
• and
• wherein the second spring portion extends towards the fastening portion.
