Abstract

1275992 Friction clutches SOC ANON FRANCAISE DU FERODO 10 June 1969 [10 June 1968 25 Feb 1969] 29408/69 Heading F2C In a friction clutch wherein a driven disc 12 is normally clamped between a driving flywheel 10 and a presser plate 11 by a diaphragm spring 16 fulcrumed at 35 on the clutch housing 13, the presser plate 11 is drivingly connected to the clutch housing 13 by strips 15 of resilient sheet metal inclined to the radius R at an angle C which lies between 45 and 75 degrees and preferably is close to 60 degrees. As shown all the strips may be inclined in the same direction to transmit torque in tension. The strips 15 are riveted at 31, 33 to the presser plate 11 and the clutch housing 13. The strips 15 may be prestressed in the axial direction of the clutch in order to move the presser plate away from the driven disc during clutch disengagement. In Figs. 8-12 (not shown) the presser plate is connected to the clutch housing by pairs of oppositely inclined strips 15 to provide for bidirectional operation. The angle subtended by the strips of each pair lies between 30 and 60 degrees and is preferably about 45 degrees. Balancing holes (34), Fig. 4 (not shown), may be drilled in the presser plate 11.
