ABSTRACT:
A friction clutch arrangement for motor vehicles to control a clutch friction disk rotationally mounted on a transmission shaft which can be locked between two components has a clutch actuating device which includes a slave device adjacent to the clutch, a master device remote from the clutch and a force transmission system between the two devices. The slave device has an annular housing having an axial extension with a radially outer part and a radially inner part which are arranged concentrically to form an annular space containing a movable piston which is engagable with the clutch friction disk. A piston sensor in the radially inner part of the axial housing extension makes it possible to determine the position of the piston in the slave cylinder independently of external influences such as vibrations or dirt or of the influence of neighboring components.
