ABSTRACT:
A device for automatically compensating for wear in a friction clutch of the kind which is released by a pedal-operated control lever acting on a cable through an intermediate element articulated to the control lever, has a toothed sector on the intermediate element which meshes with a pinion carried by structure which is pivoted on the intermediate element about the axis of the toothed sector. When the control lever is depressed to disengage the clutch the pinion is engaged by a stop surface which prevents rotation of the pinion, so that the intermediate member moves with the control lever; when the control lever returns to its rest position, however, the stop surface disengages from the pinion, allowing the latter to rotate, so that the intermediate member can assume a new position relative to the control lever, thereby taking up wear in the clutch.
