摘要： A clutch cover assembly 3 is formed to improve the workability of installation of the clutch cover assembly 3 in which a pressure plate 17 is not fixed to a clutch cover 16. The clutch cover assembly 3 is disposed such that clutch disks 42 and 43 are disposed between a flywheel 2 and the clutch cover assembly 3. The clutch cover assembly 3 selectively urges the clutch disks 42 and 43 against the flywheel 2 via the pressure plate 17. The clutch cover assembly 3 basically includes a clutch cover 16, a diaphragm spring assembly 18, and a snap ring 21. First and second diaphragm springs 29 and 30 are disposed adjacent to the clutch cover 16 on a side closer to the flywheel 2. The first and second diaphragm springs 29 and 30 include first and second disk-shaped elastic portions 31 and 32 and pluralities of first and second lever portions 33 and 34. The disk-shaped elastic portions 31 and 32 are supported by the clutch cover 16 at an outer peripheral portion. The lever portions 33 and 34 extend from the first and second elastic portions 31 and 32 in a radially inner direction. The snap ring 21 stops a movement of the first and second diaphragm springs 29 and 30 relative to the clutch cover 16.

摘要： A clutch disk assembly 1 includes an output rotary member 4, an intermediate member 3, first springs 7, a damper 8, plates 12 and 13, and third springs 5. The intermediate member 3 is disposed radially outside the output rotary member 4. The first springs 7 are arranged between the output rotary member 4 and the intermediate member 3, and are circumferentially compressed when a hub and the intermediate member 3 rotate relatively to each other in a first stage of relative rotary displacement. A damper 8 is disposed between the output rotary member 4 and the intermediate member 3, and includes second springs 10 that are not compressed in the first stage of relative rotary displacement but are compressed in a second stage of relative rotary displacement. The torsion angle corresponding to the second stage is larger than a torsion angle corresponding to the first stage. The plates 12 and 13 are arranged on the axial side of the intermediate member 3. The third springs 5 circumferentially and elastically couple the intermediate member 3 to the plates 12 and 13. The above configuration suppresses a jumping phenomenon between the first and second stages.

摘要： A method of forming a driven plate (20) of a torque converter (1) has first, second and third steps. In the first step, a flat plate member (10) is cut into a predetermined configuration. In the second step, the plate member (10) is wound to form an annular member 11 that has slightly overlapping ends with a predetermined length (t). In the third step, resistance welding is performed on overlapping ends of the annular member (11), and thereby the opposite end portions are joined together to form a continuous annular member (12).

摘要： A dynamic damper 70 is employed in a coupling mechanism 91 for coupling a crankshaft 90 of an engine and an input shaft 9 of a transmission. The dynamic damper 70 is designed to reduce a force applied in the rotating direction to components of a sub-clutch. Thus, the dynamic damper 70 reduces the cost and the size of the sub-clutch of the dynamic damper. The dynamic damper 70 is adapted to be coupled to the input shaft 9 to rotate therewith. The dynamic damper 70 basically includes a mass member 71, a sub-clutch 73 and an annular rubber member 72. The mass member 71 can rotate in accordance with rotation of the input shaft 9. The sub-clutch 73 reduces a torque transmitted between the input shaft 9 and the mass member 71 when a main clutch 3 disengages the crankshaft 90 and the input shaft 9 from each other. The annular rubber member 72 elastically couples the input shaft 9 and the mass member 71 in the rotating direction when they are in the interlocked state.
