A diaphragm spring assembly 18 is provided that makes it possible to use the same engagement member that is used in a structure with one diaphragm spring, in a structure with two diaphragm springs disposed axially next to each other. The diaphragm spring assembly 18 is supported by a clutch cover 16 and urges a pressure plate 17. The diaphragm spring assembly 18 includes a first diaphragm spring 29 and a second diaphragm spring 30. The first diaphragm spring 29 includes an annular first elastic portion 31 and a plurality of first lever portions 33 extending from the first elastic portion 31 in a radially inner direction. The second diaphragm spring 30 includes an annular second elastic portion 32 disposed on the same radial position as the first elastic member, and a plurality of second lever portions 34 extending from said second elastic portion 33 in a radially inner direction. The second lever portions 34 are shorter than the first lever portions 33.
