ABSTRACT:
A multidisk clutch comprises an external bell member adapted to be coupled to a driving shaft and an internal ring member concentric with the bell member adapted to be coupled to a driven shaft. A plurality of disk members are disposed between the bell member and the ring member. Certain of these disk members are constrained to rotate with the bell member and the remainder with the ring member. A lubricating and cooling liquid is fed into the interior of the ring member, and can reach the disk members through a plurality of holes in the ring member. A generally annular scoop member is rotatably disposed within the ring member. It is constrained to rotate with the driving shaft and has a cylindrical peripheral wall disposed between the liquid feed means and the ring member. Its dimension in the axial direction is substantially the same as that of the ring member. The peripheral wall has passages in it through which the lubricating and cooling liquid is fed centrifugally to the disk members via the holes in the ring member.
