ABSTRACT:
The assembly includes a first sleeve connected to a releasing mechanism of a clutch and having a screw threaded surface. A second sleeve is movable relative to the first sleeve and is operatively connectable to a release member. A collar is in threaded engagement with the first sleeve and clutch release forces are transmitted through the collar from the second sleeve to the first sleeve. The collar is prevented from rotating relative to the first sleeve during clutch release. An abutment is provided on the clutch for releasing the collar when the second sleeve reaches a predetermined position to allow the collar to rotate and allow the first sleeve to move axially relative to the second sleeve. A spring for urging the second sleeve towards the clutch acts between the second sleeve and part of the abutment on the clutch. A locking ring may be provided for locking the collar to the second sleeve during clutch release.
