One of coaxially placed two output shafts which is located on the inner outer side is a first shaft 102, and the other one which is located on the outer side is a second shaft 104. The first shaft 102 projects more than the second shaft 104. A first clutch disk 116 is connected to a projecting portion of the first shaft 102, and a second clutch disk 110 is connected to the second shaft 104 through a sleeve 106. The second shaft 104 and the sleeve 106 are splined to each other, and the sleeve 106 and the second clutch disk 110 are splined to each other. According to this, the sleeve 106 is structurally permitted to move in an axial direction of the engaging/disengaging mechanism, and the first clutch disk 116 is engaged and disengaged by the movement of the sleeve 106 in the axial direction.

Various embodiments may include a clutch assembly comprising: a first coupling and a second coupling; and a vibration damper with a spring. The first coupling includes a crankshaft connection and a coupling-in element which can be connected to one another in a controlled manner. The second coupling has an output connection and an intermediate element which can be connected to one another in a controlled manner. The spring connects the intermediate element and the coupling-in element to one another.

A double clutch assembly includes: first and second pressure plates and first and second disks disposed at both sides of a center plate, a connecting plate to receive an engine torque, a cover plate disposed fixedly coupled with the center plate, a pulling cover transmitting a pressurizing force to the second pressure plate, a first diaphragm spring introducing an axial direction displacement to the first pressure plate, a second diaphragm spring introducing an axial direction displacement of the cover plate, a guide plate to guide the second diaphragm spring in an axial direction, and a pulling connector that is disposed between the connecting plate and the second pressure plate, connected to the pulling cover, moves integrally with the pulling cover along the axial direction, and forms a line-contact with the second pressure plate to transmit the pressurizing force.

The present disclosure provides a double clutch assembly and a device for assisting an actuator of the double clutch. The device applies an assistance force to the actuator upon an operation of the actuator. In particular, the double clutch assembly includes first and second actuators which engage or disengage first and second clutches, respectively. The device includes: an elastic member to apply an elastic force; a first transfer portion to transfer the elastic force of the elastic member to the first actuator; and a second transfer portion to transfer the elastic force of the elastic member to the second actuator.

A friction clutch for a drive train of a motor vehicle driven by an internal combustion engine. The clutch includes a rotatable shaft, a housing, at least one first clutch plate, at least one second clutch plate that is movable axially to a limited extent relative to the at least one first clutch plate to actuate the clutch. An actuating device that has at least one lever that is pivotally-mounted on one of the clutch plates, and at least one bar one end of which is connected to the lever and an opposite end of which is connected by an articulated connection to a different clutch plate to improve the function of the clutch.

A dual-clutch for a motor vehicle includes an input, first and second outputs, friction plates for producing a drive connection between the input and the first and second outputs alternately, a housing including an inlet and an outlet, containing at least a portion of the friction plates, and a cooling system including a fan impeller rotating with the input and producing an air stream flowing through the housing from the inlet to the outlet.

A clutch mechanism for motor vehicles, having a dry individual clutch or a dual clutch, transmits torque from an engine to the transmission or selectively to one of two transmission sections. The clutch has a central disk and, on at least one side, a pressure plate. In order to further improve the cooling effect, especially in the region of the central disk and of the pressure plates, the central disk and/or at least one of the pressure plates is composed of two partial plates, wherein the mutually facing inner surfaces of the partial plates are provided with intermeshing vanes such that the intermeshing vanes of the two partial plates form an interior space having through channels which brings about flow in a radial direction or in a direction having a radial component.
