Abstract

A self-contained wet clutch assembly (10) of the Belleville spring type has a two-piece cover (A, B) containing a clutch member (C) and sealed together as a unit, the cover B being provided with circumferentially spaced inertia weights (38) operatively connected to and driven through a drive plate (12) on the engine crankshaft, thus eliminating the conventional flywheel for the clutch assembly. The clutch assembly (10) includes a concentric cylinder (73) and piston (61) to actuate the clutch release bearing (62) and simultaneously a radial-type driven member retarding brake (82). Turbulizer vanes (42) are provided to enhance the cooling effect of oil and to retard the clutch member which is provided with grooves in its friction surfaces (Fig. 4, not shown). <IMAGE>
