That is, the pressing member 25 in the clutch member 19
A plurality of supporting protrusions 29 are integrally provided on the outer end surface of the i1111 at equal intervals in the circumferential direction, and these supporting protrusions 29 face toward the pressing member 25 side. An opening 30 extending from the top and having its tip opened in the pressing member 25...
・It penetrates through the diaphragm slider and leads out to the diaphragm slider 26 side. The tip of each support protrusion 29 faces into the through hole 27 of the diaphragm spring 26, and an annular support ring 31 is abutted against this tip from the outside in the axial direction of the diaphragm spring 26. There is. The support ring 31 is removably fastened to the support protrusions 29 through delts 32 as screw members, and the outer circumference of the support ring 31 is fixed to the through hole 27. It is coaxially locked to the peripheral edge of the opening. Further, the outer circumferential portion of the diaphragm spring 26 is elastically oil-welded to a seven-run no. 33 protruding from the outer circumferential portion of the pressing member 25.
A retainer 34 made of sheet metal is interposed between the spring 26 and the flange portion 33. Therefore, the diaphragm spring 26 is axially sandwiched between the support ring 31 and the seven-runway portion 33 by tightening the support ring 31, and is held in a compressed state. Due to this compression, the diamond slam spring 26
The outer periphery of the pressing member 25 is adapted to press and urge the suppressing member 25 in the above-mentioned frictional engagement direction. In this case, the diaphragm spring 26 has a non-linear spring characteristic in which the ratio of load change to the amount of deflection temporarily decreases as shown in FIG. Since the clutch operation can be made lighter, this diaphragm spring 26 is set to the above-mentioned P1 to P when the clutch is turned off.

According to such a configuration, the support protrusions 29 are provided on the clutch member 19, and the support protrusions 29 are provided on the clutch member 19. The supporting ring 31 tightened by the bolt 32 presses the opening peripheral portion of the diamond 72 diaphragm spring 26 from the outside, and this compression causes the diaphragm spring 26 to be compressed and fixed at the threshold with the suppressing member 25. So,
When attaching or detaching the diaphragm spring 26, simply tighten or loosen the support cylinder 31t'' from the outside of the diaphragm spring 26 with the support protrusion 2.
9... Just remove it from the top. Therefore, the work of attaching and detaching the diamond 7 ram spring 26 can be easily performed, and the maintainability can be improved.
