Friction clutch esp. for tape recorders - has dish spring urging driven disc against driving disc

摘要

Firction clutch, esp. for tape recorders, has a driving disc (1) mountef for free axial and rotary movement on an output shaft (7). A spring (17) at one end of the shaft urges a first driven disc into frictional engagement with the driving disc and latter into frictional engagement with a second driving disc. The second driving disc is fixed to the shaft. The first driving disc is axially slidable on the shaft. The spring is of dish form and may comprises three radial arms whose inner ends are connected to the shaft while their outer ends press on the first driven disc.
