ABSTRACT:
A clutch mechanism is provided with an improved travel limiting device. This device comprises a plurality of retaining members (38) on the perimeter of the pressure plate (14). Each of these members (38) hooks onto a retractable member (34) forming part of the cover (10) and limiting the axial travel of the plate (14) relative to the cover (10). The mounting of the combination of the plate (14), diaphragm spring (11) and cover (10) is particularly simple in that it is effected without any relative rotational movement.
The retaining members are each adapted for hooking engagement with a limiting member following elastic movement beyond the limiting member.
