ABSTRACT:
A pressure plate assembly, comprising a housing; a pressure plate, which is installed in the housing and which is connected by a connecting arrangement to the housing so that it can rotate in common with the housing around an axis of rotation (A) and also move in the direction parallel to the axis of rotation (A); a force-exerting arrangement, which is supported against the housing and the pressure plate, by means of which arrangement force can be exerted on the pressure plate to produce an engaged state; and a wear take-up device with at least one adjusting element, which is under the pretensioning force of a pretensioning arrangement so that adjusting movements can be carried out, characterized in that a blocking arrangement is provided, which can act on the adjusting element, where, as a function of centrifugal force, the blocking arrangement either releases the adjusting element completely or to a limited, predetermined extent so that an adjusting process can be carried out or completely prevents any such adjusting movement.
