摘要： A clutch cover assembly 1 is provided with a biasing mechanism 24 disposed between a pressure plate 22 and a fulcrum ring 23 for biasing the fulcrum ring 23 axially away from the pressure plate 23. The biasing mechanism 24 includes a first support plate 31, a second support plate 32, and return springs 33. The first and second support plates 31 and 32 are movable relative to each other in the circumferential direction. The first and second support plates 31 and 32 include first and second tilted surfaces 31a and 32a, respectively, that abut on each other. The return springs 33 are disposed in an inner circumference of the first and second support plates 31 and 32. Each return spring 33 is a tension spring which biases the first and the second support plates 31 and 32 relative to each other in the circumferential direction. Thus, clutch cover assembly 1 is equipped with a wear compensation mechanism that has a simplified biasing mechanism 24 located between the fulcrum ring 23 and the pressure plate 22.

摘要： A clutch assembly (1) in a first embodiment is provided with a flywheel (7), a clutch cover (42), arcuate engagement plates (40) and wire members (44). Each arcuate engagement plate (40) includes an engagement portion fixed to an outer circumferential portion of the flywheel (7) and extending in a direction away from an engine and a bent portion (40b) further extending in a axial direction from an end of the engagement portion and bent radially inwardly. The clutch cover (42) has a hole (42b) into which the bent portion (40b) is inserted without any gap in the circumferential direction and is in contact with an end of the engagement portion of an arcuate projecting plate (40). The wire members (44) are detachably disposed between the ends of the bent portions (40b) and the clutch cover (42). The wire members (44) prevent the clutch cover (42) from moving toward the bent portions (40b). In a second embodiment, a clutch assembly (101), arcuate engagement plates (140) are fixed to an outer circumferential portion of the flywheel (7). An outer circumferential portion of the clutch cover (142) is engaged in a non-rotatable manner with the arcuate engagement plate (140) and detachably in a direction away from the flywheel (7). Bolts (144) limit the axial movement of the clutch cover (142) away from the arcuate engagement plates (140).

摘要： In a clutch release cylinder device, comprising an annular cylinder defining an annular recess, an annular piston slidably received in the annular recess; and an annular clutch release bearing assembly including a release bearing, the annular cylinder is constructed by a pair of cylinder members each formed by drawing sheet metal, and provided with a flange and a tubular portion, the tubular portion of one of the cylinder members being larger than that of the tubular portion of the other cylinder member, the annular recess being defined between the tubular portions which are coaxially nested with each other. Because the cylinder members may be made of metallic material, such as steel and other materials of high rigidity and mechanical strength, a sufficient rigidity and mechanical strength can be ensured with a substantially smaller wall thickness as compared to a cylinder formed by a molded plastic member, and substantially more economically as compared with a cylinder formed by machining a metallic block.

摘要： In an annular clutch release cylinder assembly comprising an annular piston and a cylinder housing formed by nesting a pair of cylinder members, each comprising a tubular portion and a radial flange, with each other. The annular piston is guided and reinforced by the cylindrical extension of one of the cylinder members so that the annular piston is made highly rigid against bending deformation. Therefore, the annular piston can be made of plastic material so that the weight and the fabrication cost of the release cylinder assembly may be reduced. By placing the flanges of the cylinder members directly one over the other, and forming at least a part of the passage leading to the annular slot by forming a recess in one of the flanges of the cylinder members, it is possible to reduce the axial dimension of the clutch release cylinder assembly.

摘要： In a clutch cover assembly, a regulating mechanism allows a fulcrum ring to move in an axial direction away from a pressure plate in response to wear of a friction facing, but limits amount of movement in accordance with the amount of wear. The regulating mechanism includes a bolt and a bushing. The bolt is fixed to a second side face of the pressure plate and extends axially. The bushing is engaged with the bolt by the friction force. In an alternate embodiment, an urging mechanism of the clutch cover assembly urges a fulcrum ring away from the pressure plate. The fulcrum ring is formed with a plurality of first inclined faces which engage second inclined faces formed on a wedge part. A friction plate is disposed between the pressure plate and the wedge part limiting movement of the wedge part.

摘要： The clutch cover assembly comprises a clutch cover, a pressure place, a fulcrum ring, a diaphragm spring, and a diaphragm spring posture maintenance mechanism. The maintenance mechanism includes an adjustment mechanism which is composed with a pair of wedge mechanisms inclined surfaces of which extend in the circumferential direction and keep in contact with each other, and a spring for urging one of the wedge mechanisms against the other in the circumferential direction so as to move either one of the wedge mechanisms in the axial direction. Since adjustment mechanism functions by the circumferential wedge mechanisms, it is possible to accurately maintain the diaphragm spring posture without being affected by the engine rotation speed.
