ABSTRACT:
A friction clutch can have a relatively thin application plate with a diameter ratio D.sub.A (outside diameter) to D.sub.I (inside diameter) of less than about 1.4. As a result of such a configuration, the application plate, in spite of the reduction in the size of the friction surface, exhibits an improved ability to transmit the torque in the event of the sudden application of a high frictional load. In accordance with at least one embodiment this same diameter ratio can be given to the corresponding friction linings as well.
