A clutch disc assembly includes a hub flange, an output hub, an intermediate hub, a plurality of first elastic members, and a plurality of second elastic members. Power from an engine is input into the hub flange. The output hub can be coupled to an input shaft of the transmission. The intermediate hub is arranged between the hub flange and the output hub in a diameter direction such that relative rotation with the hub flange by an angle greater than or equal to a first angular range is prevented, and such that relative rotation with the output hub by an angle greater than or equal to a second angular range is prevented. The plurality of first elastic members couple the hub flange and the intermediate hub elastically in a rotation direction. The plurality of second elastic members couple the intermediate hub and the output hub elastically in the rotation direction.

A clutch assembly is disclosed that includes a hub, a damper and a pre-damper. A first pre-damper side plate is adjacent the damper and a second pre-damper side plate has a lug that extends radially outwardly and axially across the intermediate plate and the first pre-damper plate toward a first side plate of the damper that is adjacent the pre-damper. The lug is received in a notch defined by the first side plate of the damper to prevent relative rotation between the first side plate of the damper and the pre-damper. A method is disclosed for assembling the pre-damper and the damper on a hub. The pre-damper includes a radially and axially extending lug that is assembled to the notch in the damper to prevent relative rotation between the damper and the pre-damper.

A damper disc assembly includes first and second input plates, an output unit, a high stiffness damper unit, and first and second low stiffness damper units. The output unit includes an input-side member and an output-side member disposed rotatably relative to each other. The high stiffness damper unit elastically couples the input-side member and the first and second input plates in a rotational direction and is actuated in a high torsion angular range of torsional characteristics. The first and second low stiffness damper units elastically couple the input-side member and the output-side member and are actuated in a low torsion angular range of the torsional characteristics. The second low stiffness damper unit is actuated later than actuation of the first low stiffness damper unit.

A drive train unit for a drive train of a motor vehicle includes an input component for introducing a torque, a torsion damper for damping rotational non-uniformities, an output component for outputting the torque, and an intermediate hub. The torsion damper is connected in a torque-transmitting manner to the input component. The torsion damper includes a main damper having a spring element, and a radial inner side. The output component is connected in a torque-transmitting manner to the torsion damper. The output component is arranged radially outside of the spring element. The intermediate hub connects the torsion damper to the output component on the radial inner side.

A driven damper assembly, comprises a first main-damper cover plate comprising an inclined portion. The inclined portion comprises a notch. A first plane passes through the first pre-damper cover plate. A second plane passes through the first main-damper cover plate and is parallel to the first plane. The notch comprises a first wall and a second wall. The first wall is not parallel to the second wall. The inclined portion extends away from the second plane at an angle greater than zero degrees away from the second plane and less than ninety degrees away from the second plane. The first pre-damper cover plate comprises a tab with a first portion extending outwardly at an angle greater than zero degrees away from the first plane and less than ninety degrees away from the first plane, wherein the tab engages the notch at the first wall and the second wall.
