Abstract: A clutch mechanism is configured to be driven in rotation about an axis and includes two assemblies. Each assembly includes: an outer disk carrier externally delimiting a cavity; a clutch including a stack of coupling disks and friction disks, the stack being housed in the cavity and configured to be driven in rotation about the axis; and a reaction member of the outer disk carrier configured to enable compression of the coupling disks against the friction disks in a clutch engaged position of the corresponding clutch. The clutch mechanism includes at least one device for assembling the two assemblies to one another.
