Clutch aggregate i.e. duplex-clutch, for torque transmission between engine and double clutch transmission in motor vehicle, has laminated spring ring creating path limitation for spring tongues in opened condition of friction clutches

摘要

The aggregate (1) has friction clutches i.e. knuckle friction clutches, provided with pressure plates. A laminated spring (6) acts between a housing (8) and the plates, where the plates are impacted with friction pads in a direction of clutch disks braced between the plates and a counter pressure plate via the spring. The spring is centered by an individual component (2) i.e. centering laminated spring ring (3) in relation to the housing, and the component creates a path limitation for laminated spring tongues in an opened condition of the clutches, where the component is made of sheet metal.
