ABSTRACT:
A wet friction clutch for automotive vehicles wherein the clutch plate between the flywheel and the pressure plate is assembled of two spaced-apart friction discs and a spacer disc therebetween. The friction discs are coupled to each other by leaf springs which prevent relative angular but allow relative axial movements of the two friction discs. Additional leaf springs connect the spacer disc and the pressure plate to the cover, and elastic lamellae are used to couple the two friction discs to the flywheel and the pressure plate, respectively. The clutch plate drives the input shaft of the transmission and carries a distributor for lubricating coolant which is supplied by a tubular guide for the disengaging unit and serves to cool the friction discs.
