Abstract

1,019,169. Friction clutches. AUTOMOTIVE PRODUCTS CO. Ltd. May 27, 1964 [May 27, 1963], No. 20996/63. Heading F2C. An automatic adjusting device for taking up wear in a twin disc clutch (Fig. 2, not shown) having an intermediate drive plate 2 connected by spring straps 3 to a driving flywheel 1 carrying a pressure plate 18 urged by a diaphragm spring 16 to drivingly engage clutch plates 14, 15 which are arranged one each side of the intermediate drive plate 2 and splined to a driven shaft (not shown), comprises a dished spring steel washer 7 located in a closed recess 12 in the plate 2 and having radially inward tongues which frictionally grip a sleeve 9 located with play between a retaining ring 11 and shoulder 10 on an axial pin 6 secured to the flywheel 1, the play between the ring 11 and shoulder 10 determining the disengaged position of the intermediate plate 2, the washer 7 being shifted along the pin 6 towards the flywheel 1 as the clutch plates wear to maintain the clearance between the clutch plates constant when the clutch is disengaged irrespective of wear, the tongues of the washer 7 gripping the sleeve 9 to prevent reverse movement.
