Clutch assembly

摘要

The clutch assembly for the transmission of torque between an engine and gearbox has several, and especially two friction clutches (1,2) each including a pressure plate (6,11) which is capable of limited axial displacement. The pressure plates are loaded by a unique diaphragm spring unit (16) which has an annular body from which a number of diaphragm spring levers (15,22) extend radially inwards. Two adjacent diaphragm spring levers are allocated to different clutches.
