ABSTRACT:
A clutch disc which serves to transmit torque between an axially movable pressure plate and a rotary counterpressure plate of a friction clutch in a motor vehicle has at least one damper including an input component having friction linings engageable by the pressure plate and the counterpressure plate when the clutch is engaged, an output component which is coaxial with and rotatable relative to the input component and can transmit torque to the input shaft of a variable-speed transmission in the vehicle, and energy storing means interposed between and opposing rotation of the input and output components relative to each other. The input and/or the output component includes at least one substantially disc-shaped torque transmitting member which is of one piece with a portion having several resilient tongues which are deformable in the direction of the common axis of the input and output components and form part of a friction generating device.
