ABSTRACT:
A liquid-cooled friction clutch contains at least one lamella, which is connected rotationally fixed to a driveshaft, at least one lamella, which is connected rotationally fixed to an output shaft, these lamellae being able to be pressed mutually against one another and being positioned inside a clutch housing connected rotationally fixed to the driveshaft, and a coolant liquid return line, which leads from an area radially outside the lamellae to an area radially inside the lamellae and returns coolant liquid after its radial flow along the lamellae from the radial external area into the radial internal area, an end area of the return line being implemented as a scoop tube having an intake opening which is immersed radially outside the lamellae in a coolant liquid ring rotating together with the clutch housing and returns the coolant liquid into the area radially inside the lamellae without flowing through a pump driven by external force.
