A progressivity device for a friction clutch disc includes a support flange, having a central axis of rotation, in which an annular central part is designed to cooperate with a torsional vibration damper, and an external part bears progressivity blades and friction pads attached to the progressivity blades. The progressivity blades extend circumferentially over at least one of the faces of the support flange. The progressivity blade include one end fixed to the external part, another free end and folds delimiting a support region for the friction pad.

A clutch disk for a vehicle may include a hub plate mounted on a shaft to restrict a rotation of the shaft, a sub plate rotatably mounted on the shaft, a presser mounted on the hub plate to restrict a position of the presser and protruding from the hub plate toward the sub plate, and a wave spring positioned between the hub plate and the sub plate, mounted to allow at least a part of the wave spring to adhere to the sub plate, and formed with a flexion to change a spaced distance from the hub plate depending on a rotation direction of the hub plate to thereby change a point and a level pressed by the presser depending on a relative rotation between the hub plate and the sub plate.

A friction clutch selectively and directly couples a rotatable drive and driven members. The friction clutch includes first and second clutch members movable toward and away from each other along an axis between disengaged, partially engaged, and fully engaged positions. The first and second clutch members are independently coupled to the drive and driven members. The friction clutch further includes first and second friction materials positioned between the first and second clutch members. The first and second friction materials are each independently coupled to one of the first and second clutch members and are each independently engageable with an engagement surface of the other one of the first and second clutch members. The first friction material engages the respective engagement surface in the partially engaged position and the second friction material engages the respective engagement surface in the fully engaged position.

A clutch plate, including: an axis of rotation; a first annular plate with a first side facing in an axial direction; a second annular plate: axially separated from the first annular plate by a gap; and including a second side facing the first side in an opposite axial direction; a first cushion segment connected to the first and second annular plates and including: a radially outermost edge; a slot extending into the cushion segment in a circumferential direction; a first edge connecting the slot and the radially outermost edge; and a second edge extending radially inward from the slot. The first edge contacts the second side and the second edge is separated from the second side by a distance in the axial direction; or, the second edge contacts the first side and the first edge is separated from the first side by a distance in the axial direction.

A multi-plate clutch includes an outer plate suspended on a radial outside and axially displaceable, an inner plate suspended on a radial inside and axially displaceable, and a plurality of leaf springs. The plurality of leaf springs is distributed around an outer circumference of the outer plate to suspend the outer plate in a torque-transmitting manner on a rotor pot, or the plurality of leaf springs is distributed in an inner circumference of the inner plate to suspend the inner plate in a torque-transmitting manner on a driving ring. In an example embodiment, the multi-plate clutch is a dry multi-plate clutch for a hybrid drivetrain. In an example embodiment, the multi-plate clutch includes a plurality of outer plates and a plurality of inner plates.

A dog clutch for a vehicle includes gear-side meshing teeth provided on a shifting gear fitted so as to be rotatable relative to a shaft, and a dog ring disposed adjacent to the shifting gear in the axial direction of the shaft. The dog ring includes a first ring, a second ring, and springs interposed between the two rings. The first ring is provided with meshing teeth that can be meshed with the gear-side meshing teeth of the shifting gear. The second ring is provided with meshing teeth that can be meshed with the gear-side meshing teeth of the shifting gear.
