Abstract: A clutch plate for use in friction clutches has an output component in the form of a hub which is connectable to the input shaft of a variable-speed transmission, and an input component in the form of two spaced-apart disc-shaped walls which receive torque from a flywheel when the clutch is engaged. Two dampers are installed between the input and output components, and two diaphragm springs are provided to maintain the members of one damper and the elements of the other damper in proper axial positions relative to each other and relative to the components of the clutch plate. Plastic inserts are used to reduce wear upon metallic parts. One of the dampers is operative alone during a first stage of angular movement of the input and output components relative to each other, and the other damper is operative alone during the next-following stage of such angular movement. Relatively weak energy storing springs operate between the input and output members of the one damper, and stronger or stiffer energy storing springs operate between the input and output elements of the other damper.

Abstract: A friction clutch wherein the pressure plate at one side of the clutch disc is axially movably connected with a cover by a set of leaf springs which are disposed at the outer side of the cover, namely at the side which faces the engine of the motor vehicle wherein the clutch is installed. The cover is driven by the crankshaft of the engine and has raised portions extending toward the engine and being riveted to the respective end portions of the leaf springs. The other end portions of the leaf springs are riveted to protuberances which are provided on the pressure plate and extend into openings provided therefor in the cover and alternating with the raised portions. The clutch plate is biased against the adjacent lining of the clutch disc by a diaphragm spring whose radially outermost portion reacts against the cover radially inwardly of the protuberances and which bears against the pressure plate in a region which is located somewhat inwardly of the radially outermost portion. The protuberances of the pressure plate need not extend radially outwardly beyond the peripheral surfaces of the linings on the clutch disc. The leaf springs transmit torque between the cover and the pressure plate and allow the latter to move axially into and from frictional engagement with the adjacent lining. The mounting of such leaf springs at the outer side of the cover contributes to compactness of the friction clutch, as considered in the radial direction of the linings.

Abstract: A device for damping torsional vibrations has two elements that are rotatable relative to each other. One of the elements is connected to a motor, and the other element is connected to a gear box. A torsional vibration damper with energy accumulators is interposed between the elements to counteract a relative rotation between them. At least one of the elements is configured as a disc-like sheet metal part in which circumferentially extending mountings or pockets are formed to receive the energy accumulators. Press-formed support areas in the sheet metal part delimit the pockets in the circumferential direction and serve to introduce biasing forces into the energy accumulators. Impressed in the sheet metal part are circumferential grooves extending over at least part of the length of each pocket between the press-formed support areas.

Abstract: A clutch disc wherein two annular washer-like friction linings flank a two-part resilient cushion which moves the friction linings apart during disengagement of a friction clutch wherein the clutch disc is installed between an engine-driven flywheel and an axially movable pressure plate, and which stores energy during engagement of the clutch. A blocking or movement limiting device, which defines a fulcrum for the friction linings, is provided between the parts of the cushion and/or on the friction linings to prevent an axial movement of the friction linings toward each other beyond a selected minimum distance and to thus compensate for deformation of the flywheel and/or pressure plate as a result of heating attributable to slippage of the pressure plate and flywheel relative to the adjacent friction linings during engagement and disengagement of the clutch.

Abstract: A composite flywheel has primary and secondary masses rotatable relative to each other against the resistance of a damper having arcuate coil springs and an abutment between neighboring end portions of such springs. The abutment can move in the circumferential direction of the masses and is preferably form-lockingly connected against loss to at least one of the springs. To this end, a portion of the abutment extends into the adjacent convolutions of the at least one spring and is engaged by such convolutions with a force which suffices to prevent unintentional separation of the at least one spring from the abutment in the axial direction of the at least one spring.

Abstract: A composite flywheel having coaxial primary and secondary flywheels, which can turn relative to each other against the opposition of one or more friction generating devices and/or dampers, employs a substantially cup-shaped carrier with one or more signal generators in the form of notches, recesses, grooves, holes, projections or the like. The carrier includes a radially inwardly extending washer-like portion and a sleeve-like portion, which sleeve-like portion is in one piece with the radially outermost part of the washer-like portion. The signal generator(s) is (are) provided in or on that part of the sleeve-like portion which projects outwardly beyond a sleeve-like part of the radially outer end portion of the primary flywheel. The sleeve-like part of the end portion of the primary flywheel surrounds and confines the washer-like portion and is welded to the sleeve-like portion of the carrier.
