ABSTRACT:
A clutch releasing device for positively releasing a clutch disc assembly from a flywheel of automotive vehicles which includes a first member disposed between the clutch disc assembly and a pilot bearing for receiving the extreme end of the transmission input shaft and which is in contact with the side face of an inner race of the pilot bearing, a second member operatively connected to the clutch disc assembly with respect to axial movement thereof and an annular resilient member disposed between the first member and the second member so as to cause the deformation of the annular resilient member when clutch is engaged. When the clutch is released, the clutch disc assembly is released by the resiliency of the annular resilient member from the flywheel until the annular resilient member returns to its original shape. The annular resilient member is axially slidably mounted on either the first member or the second member with a predetermined sliding resistance so as to cause slippage according to the wear of the friction facing of the clutch disc assembly, therebetween. The connection between the second member and the clutch disc assembly is radially outwardly positioned above spacer rivets of the clutch disc assembly so as to reduce the erroneous axial movement of the second member in assembling of the clutch.
