ACTUATING APPARATUS FOR A FRICTION CLUTCH, AND CLUTCH SYSTEM
An actuating apparatus has a first and a second actuating element that delimit a pressure chamber. The actuating apparatus has a rotary decoupling bearing coupled via a compensation assembly to the second actuating element for joint movement along the spatial axis. The compensation assembly comprises a first ramp element which is supported axially on the second actuating element and is preloaded relative to the second actuating element by a first preloading apparatus for rotation about the spatial axis and a second ramp element coupled to the rotary decoupling bearing. An axial overall length of the compensation group along the spatial axis changes in the case of a rotation, of the first ramp element relative to the second actuating element. The compensation assembly has a blocking element and a blocking toothing system in blocking engagement with a counter-blocking toothing system of the first ramp element

Bearing having an overmoulded wear race, and associated manufacturing method
The bearing provides an inner race, an outer race and a wear race that is made of synthetic material and fastened to one of the races. The wear race is overmolded on at least one face of the race. The face includes at least one retention means that is covered with the synthetic material of the wear race and shaped to allow both the axial retention and the angular retention of the wear race relative to the race by shape complementarity with the wear race.
Clutch, in particular for a motor vehicle
A clutch release bearing (17), in particular for a motor vehicle, having: a tubular body (30) through which at least one input shaft (11) of a gearbox is intended to pass; at least one actuator having a part, movable in translation along the axis (X) of the body (30), intended for actuation of a clutch diaphragm; a target (28a, 28b) whose position is representative of the position of the movable part of the actuator; and a detector (29a, 29b) capable of detecting the position of the target (28a, 28b). The target (28a, 28b) is offset angularly from the detector (29a, 29b) with respect to the axis (X) of the body (30).
CLUTCH RELEASE BEARING INCLUDING INSERTS
A clutch release bearing assembly is disclosed herein that includes a more durable and improved interface for engaging an actuator. The assembly includes a housing having at least one flange, and the housing is formed from a first material. At least one insert is supported on the at least one flange, and the at least one insert is configured to engage an actuator. The at least one insert is formed from a second material that is different than the first material
Actuating mechanism, in particular for a clutch actuator
An actuating mechanism for a clutch actuator includes: an actuating element which is designed to be acted on by an actuating force and thereby displaced in an actuation direction, a transmitting element which is designed to carry out a displacement in the actuation direction, wherein a tensioning element is provided between the actuating element and the transmitting element. The tensioning element is designed to generate, for the transmission of the actuating force to the transmitting element, a clamping pressure force which generates a friction force for the transmission of the actuating force. The friction force is configured so as to be capable of transmitting a maximum actuating force.

Clutch Bearing Having Alignment Element for Clutch Spring
A motor vehicle clutch for frictionally connecting and separating a drive assembly to/from an auxiliary assembly, has a bearing for transferring an axial force to at least one plate spring by way of a contact surface, for opening the clutch. The plate spring has spring tongues protruding radially inward, which have recesses between each other. The bearing has pins for radially immovable and rotationally fixed immobilizing of the plate spring, which pins extend from the contact surface in the axial direction of the motor vehicle clutch and are configured to be received by the recesses between the spring tongues and to engage therewith.
Clutch release bearing including inserts
A clutch release bearing assembly is disclosed herein that includes a more durable and improved interface for engaging an actuator. The assembly includes a housing having at least one flange, and the housing is formed from a first material. At least one insert is supported on the at least one flange, and the at least one insert is configured to engage an actuator. The at least one insert is formed from a second material that is different than the first material.
Clutch release bearing device
In a clutch release bearing device, an inner ring (12) of a ball bearing (10) is pressed against a diaphragm spring (40) so that a clutch is disengaged. A contact member (20) made of steel is press-fitted to the inner ring (12) so that a convex spherical protruding portion (20b) formed at an end portion of the contact member (20) is brought into contact with the diaphragm spring (40). In addition, a contact position (C) between the protruding portion (20b) and the diaphragm spring (40) is located between an extension line of an inner diameter (D1) of the inner ring (12) and an extension line of an outer diameter (D2) of the inner ring (12).
