ABSTRACT:
The combination, including a flywheel couplable to and uncouplable from an internal-combustion engine, depending upon specific circumstances, and a clutch for coupling the flywheel to and for uncoupling the flywheel from the internal-combustion engine, the clutch comprising an entrainer disc secured to a rotatable part of the internal-combustion engine against axial and rotary displacement relative thereto, the entrainer disc having two friction surfaces, a pair of pressure plates each having a respective opposing friction surface located on opposite sides of the entrainer disc, a cup spring actuatable for positively moving the pressure plates in opposite directions, the cup spring having a radially outer region operatively engageable with one of the pressure plates, and a radially inner region operatively engageable with the other of the pressure plates, an axially fixed tilting support being disposed on an axially fixed part of the flywheel, the flywheel part being mounted for relative rotation with the rotatable part of the internal-combustion engine, torque transmission means for transmitting torque between the rotatable part of the internal-combustion engine, on the one hand, and the pair of axially movable pressure plates of the clutch, and actuating means engaging the cup spring at radially inner regions thereof.
