  • the invention relates to driven plates for friction clutches in motor vehicles.
  • Known driven plates for friction clutches comprise a main driven plate assembly including at least one friction lining and a central hub for connection with a shaft- the main assembly being mounted concentrically about and drivingly connected to the hub
  • Such known driven plates are hereinafter referred to as driven plates of the type described.
  • Driven plates of the type described are often used in friction clutches for motor vehicles to selectively transfer drive from a flywheel, which may be attached to the crankshaft of an internal combustion engine, to a drive shaft of the vehicle transmission.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un disque d'embrayage (10) comprenant un ensemble principal (11) connecté par entraînement à un moyeu (12) à l'aide de formations (14, 21) de commande assemblées l'une dans l'autre avec un jeu radial et circonférentiel limités permettant à l'ensemble principal de se déplacer de manière radiale et circonférentielle par rapport au moyeu de façon limitée. Le disque d'embrayage comprend également deux paires de surfaces opposées (32, 33; 34, 35), chaque paire de surfaces opposées comprenant une première surface (32, 34) associée au moyeu (12) et une seconde surface (33, 35) associée à l'ensemble principal du disque d'embrayage. Au moins une des surfaces dans chaque paire est inclinée de manière oblique par rapport à l'axe de rotation du disque d'embrayage, une des paires de surfaces opposées étant destinée à inhiber le mouvement de l'ensemble principal du disque d'embrayage par rapport au moyeu dans une première direction axiale du disque d'embrayage, et l'autre paire étant destinée à inhiber le mouvement de l'ensemble principal du disque d'embrayage par rapport au moyeu dans la direction axiale opposée du disque d'embrayage. Cette configuration permet à l'ensemble principal (11) du disque d'embrayage d'être incliné par rapport à l'axe du moyeu central (12), la première et la seconde surface de chaque paire coulissant l'une par rapport à l'autre.
