Abstract

1,179,932. Couplings; friction clutches. SOC. ANON. FRANCAISE DU FERODO. 10 April, 1967 [7 Oct., 1966], No. 16245/67. Headings F2C and F2U. The pressure plate 12 and cover 14 of a friction clutch are coupled for relative axial movement without relative rotation by straps 13 extending substantially tangentially to the pressure plate 12 with their centres 39 riveted to radial lugs 30 on the pressure plate and their ends 37, 38 riveted to lands 27, 28 on the cover. Each of the three straps 13 has two straight portions 35, 36 tapered towards their ends 37, 38 and joined by an arcuate centre portion 39. Portion 35 is normally in tension and portion 36, which is normally in compression, is curved, corrugated, or twisted, as at 40, to improve its flexibility. Peripheral portions 25 of cover 14 are bolted to an input flywheel 10. The lands 27, 28 are offset axially from the portions 25 and form the boundaries of cut-outs 29 of the cover into which the lugs 30 extend. An output disc 16 is clamped between the flywheel 10 and pressureplate 12 by the action of a diaphragm spring 18. A thrust bearing 23 conveys the clutch disengaging force to levers 22 integral with the spring 18, brackets 24 on the lugs 30 holding the pressure plate to the diaphragm spring periphery. In a modification, brackets 24 are omitted and the portion 35 of each strap 13 is inclined to the plane normal to the axis of rotation to form a "Z" spring urging the plate 12 towards the disengaged position.
