Title:
DEVICE FOR SELECTIVELY RELEASING AND CONNECTING ROTATIVE SHAFT
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS55149428
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
Device for selectively separating and connecting a rotatable shaft, such as the crankshaft of an internal combustion engine, to a flywheel assembly of a friction clutch has a bearing in which the flywheel assembly is rotatable relative to the shaft, a friction plate non-rotatably connected to the shaft and having friction surfaces disposed at the opposite sides thereof, two pressure plates forming part of the flywheel assembly and each having a friction surface cooperating with one of the friction surfaces of the friction plates, the pressure plate being axially movably but non-rotatably connected to each other and, one of the pressure plates being held against axial movement relative to the bearing, operating means for moving the other of the pressure plates axially, spring means disposed on the friction plate between the connection to the shaft and the friction surfaces disposed thereon for biasing the friction plate in direction away from the axially-fixed pressure plate, and stop means for limiting the extent of axial movement of the friction surfaces of the friction plate.
