ABSTRACT:
A clutch driven plate assembly for use in an automotive vehicle adapted to dissipate the irregular impulses of the vehicle engine when the transmission is in neutral, the clutch is engaged and the engine is at idle rpm. The assembly includes a clutch plate, a spring retainer plate secured to the clutch plate, and a hub in operative engagement with the transmission input shaft and having an integral hub flange with spring windows opened to allow an additional rotational travel of the clutch and spring retainer plates relative to the hub. An axially movable cam member has a splined opening receiving the splined transmission shaft and projections with 45.degree. camming surfaces, a ramp member with cooperating camming surfaces and notches in its periphery encompassing the damper springs located in the plate windows and cam springs positioned in aligned recesses in the cam member and hub to align the splines of the cam member and hub and bias the parts axially apart.
