ABSTRACT:
A plate separator for a multiplate clutch includes a circular spine and integral bifurcations extending in opposite directions from the spine. The plate separator is disposed in an annulus defined by a pair of outer friction plates and an interposed inner friction plate. When the outer friction plates clamp the inner friction plate, the bifurcations flex at their junctures with the spine. When the inner friction plate is released, the bifurcations unflex to separate the outer plates from the inner plate.
