FRICTION CLUTCH DRIVEN PLATE

摘要

A motor vehicle friction clutch driven plate having a hub (11) and a facing carrier (16) (19) mounted on the hub and capable of limited rotation about the hub (11). Resilient damping members (21) act between the hub and carrier for damping out drive load oscillations and an auxiliary resilient damping members (25) also acts between the hub and carrier to damp out idling loads. The resilient damping members (21) are each a snug fit in either the hub (11) or carrier (16) (19) and a loose fit in the other (11) or (16) (19). The auxiliary damping member (25) is arranged end to end with at least one of the resilient means (21) to bias said resilient member (21) ('B') towards one end of its aperture in which it is a loose fit.
