Thrust plate assembly has leaf spring arrangement support that is contacted by at least one longitudinal area of leaf spring arrangement when coupling areas of leaf spring arrangement approach each other

摘要

A leaf spring arrangement (16) holds a pressure plate (14) so as to be movable axially with respect to a housing. At least one of the longitudinal areas (44,46) of the leaf spring arrangement contacts a leaf spring arrangement support when the coupling areas (26,28) of the leaf spring arrangement approach one another in the circumferential direction with respect to the axis of rotation. An Independent claim is also included for a friction clutch.
