PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a clutch mechanism having excellent clutch uncoupling property when changing a clutch from a coupled condition to an uncoupled state, as compared with conventional ones. SOLUTION: The clutch mechanism 20 includes a flywheel 21 connected to an output shaft 2 of an engine 1, a clutch cover 22, a clutch disk 24 which is attached to an input shaft 3 of a transmission in an axially slidable manner and in a relatively non-rotatable manner, a pressure plate 25 which is attached to the clutch cover 22 in an axially slidable manner and in a relatively non-rotatable manner to press the clutch disk 24, and a diaphragm spring 26 to urge the pressure plate 25 to the flywheel 21 side, and the clutch cover 22 has an action point for receiving the bending moment to the flywheel 21 side by the centrifugal force when the flywheel 21 is rotated. A balance weight 23 is provided on the clutch cover 22 so as to be located on the side opposite to the flywheel 21 with respect to the axis in the vertical direction passing through the action point.
