ABSTRACT:
A center load clutch brake assembly has a pair of covers secured together to form a housing enclosing torque limiting components which include a ring shaped inner brake washer having a pair of radially inwardly extending lugs for engaging splines or grooves formed in a drive shaft coupled between a vehicle clutch and a vehicle transmission. The inner brake washer is rotatably coupled to a pair of concentric outer washers through a lost motion coupling. The outer washers each have reduced thickness outer peripheral portions which define an annular groove therebetween for retaining a ring shaped wave washer. The wave washer biases the two outer washers against the inner surfaces of the housing and has a pair of tabs for engaging openings in the housing. Facing material is provided on the outer surfaces of the housing for frictionally engaging a clutch release bearing and an outer surface of the transmission housing when a clutch linkage actuates the release bearing to disengage the clutch.
