A clutch plate including first and second plates with the first plate having a friction material applied about its peripheral edge. A hub for connection to an output shaft and having a hub flange. The first and second plates being angularly displaceable relative to each other and being coupled by at least two drive springs. A sleeve extends about a portion of each of the drive springs so that a portion of each of the drive springs extends out of the sleeve. The sleeve being interposed between a radially outer surface of the springs and a facing bearing surface formed by the plates. The arrangement is such that during compression of the springs, the springs are moveable within the sleeves relative to the sleeves and the sleeves are moveable relative to the bearing surface of the plates. |
