MULTIPLE CLUTCH SYSTEM WITH MULTI-DISC CLUTCH ARRANGEMENTS AXIALLY JUXTAPOSED

摘要

The invention relates to a multiple clutch system, optionally a double clutch system (10), for arranging in a drive train between a drive unit and a gearbox. Said clutch system comprises a first multi-disc clutch arrangement (20), associated with a first gearbox input shaft (14) and a second multi-disc clutch arrangement (22), associated with a second gearbox input shaft (16) for the torque transmission between the drive unit and the gearbox, the first disc set (36) and the second disc set (46) being axially juxtaposed in relation to a common rotation axis (A). Said clutch system has an input side (24) which is, or can be, directly or indirectly coupled to an output shaft of the drive unit, said input side being connected to input-sided discs of a first disc set (36) of the first clutch arrangement and input-sided discs of a second disc set (46) of the second clutch arrangement in a rotationally engaging manner.
