Definitions

• the invention relates to a friction clutch, in particular in a double clutch with driving and power take-off with a plate spring against a counter-pressure plate under tension of friction linings of a clutch disc axially biased and distributed over the circumference, axially loaded by a releaser, with a predetermined axial play against the Reliever playful knee levers by means of first hinges rotatably arranged pressure levers against the action of the diaphragm spring displaceable pressure plate and means for adjusting the axial play.
• the provided for the driving, effective between the crankshaft of the internal combustion engine and the transmission input shaft of the speed change gear friction clutch comprises a unit of a counter-pressure plate and a housing, which may be formed integrally or separately, with an axially displaceable and non-rotatably received on this pressure plate on by means of a diaphragm spring is biased against the counter-pressure plate with the interposition of friction linings of a clutch disc.
• the pressure plate is arranged with respect to the counter-pressure plate on the side facing away from the releaser and is disengaged by means of the release lever axially acted upon pressure lever displacing knee lever as raised.
• a predetermined axial play for example, in the amount of 2 mm preset. If wear on the friction linings occurs, this axial play is successively reduced until the toggle lever comes into contact with the releaser. In this case, the effect of the disc spring with respect to the pressure plate can be reduced so that the friction clutch slips and, if appropriate, the friction linings are exposed to high thermal loads.
• the object of the invention is therefore to propose a generic friction clutch, which makes manual adjustment of the axial clearance over life superfluous or at least increases the setting intervals.
• the object is by a friction clutch, in particular in a dual clutch with driving and power take-off with a plate spring against a counter-pressure plate under tension of friction linings of a clutch plate axially biased and distributed over the circumference, axially loaded by a releaser, with a predetermined axial play opposite the release lever playful toggle levers by means of first hinges rotatably arranged pressure levers against the action of the diaphragm spring displaceable pressure plate and means for adjusting the Axiälspiels solved, wherein an automatic adjustment device is provided serially to the means.
• This adjusting device compensates path-dependent closed friction clutch a due to the wear of the friction linings and thereby displacing in the direction of the releaser pressure plate decreasing axial play between toggle and pressure plate and fulfills or automatically supplements the function of an adjustment of the means such as adjusting screws between pressure plate and pressure levers.

• a clutch disc with friction linings of a lining thickness of 10 mm may be provided, wherein an adjustment of the friction clutch is carried out at a wear of 2 mm and the axial clearance is set to 2 mm. Reduces the friction lining thickness, reduces the axial play to exhaustion and is then increased in a successful adjustment again to 2 mm. This process can be repeated twice until reaching the wear limit of the friction linings in this embodiment.
• An adjustment takes place, for example, when the wear of the friction linings over a pitch in the closed state or opening friction clutch against the action of the plate spring by means of a displacement of a pivot of the pressure lever in a next, further away from the toggle and the pressure plate closer, adjacent position and a Displacement of the pressure lever in a next, further away from the knee lever and the pressure plate closer, adjacent stop.
• the adjustment can be prevented during opening of the friction clutch by the second rotary joint according to an adjustable pliers prevents re-adjustment, and is readjusted only in the closed state.
• the swivel joint can be displaced into the next position by applying a corresponding disengaging force during the disengagement of the friction clutch, the corresponding disengaging force being counteracted by the diaphragm spring.
• the pivot pin can be designed to be radially inwardly displaceable.
• the pressure lever in the region of the stop to the pendulum piece can have an asymmetrical circumference with respect to a pivot point of the second rotary joint.
• the stops can be sawtooth-shaped, so that at increasing wear a transition in the next stop is facilitated, but the disengagement is still transmitted safely at not yet sufficient for an adjustment wear on the pendulum piece.
