PRESSURE PLATE UNIT FOR FRICTION CLUTCH
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS61282628
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
The thrust plate unit for a motor vehicle friction clutch comprises a clutch cover of annular pot form which comprises an annular face wall part and a side wall part standing axially away from the face wall part. An annular presser plate arranged in the clutch cover is guided nonrotatably but axially displaceably through several leaf springs on an annular retaining element arranged axially between a diaphragm spring and the presser plate. The retaining element for its part is secured through several axially protruding distance elements on the clutch cover. The retaining element and/or the distance elements at the same time fix the diaphragm spring on the clutch cover. The annular retaining element expediently extends within the external circumference of the diaphragm spring, so that the clutch cover can be constructed simply and stably with circular cross-section and without piercings.
