ABSTRACT:
A clutch assembly for automotive vehicles as one application of the rotational torque transmission mechanism comprises an inertia member divided to a driving plate connected to an engine crank shaft and a flywheel connected to a clutch cover. Between the driving plate and the flywheel is provided dampers and a torque limiting clutch which will permit the slidable rotation of the driving plate relative to the flywheel. Thus, any vigorous torque variation on the crank shaft particularly at the low speed of the engine may be absorbed or diminished to thereby avoid the objectionable torque transmission to a clutch output member.
