Abstract: A clutch assembly with an automatically adjusting mechanism includes a clutch cover, a pressure plate, an actuating lever, a rotating cam ring, a stationary cam ring, and an adjusting spring disposed between the rotating cam ring and the clutch cover. The clutch cover has an axis of rotation. The pressure plate is concentric with the axis of rotation and has an engagement surface disposed opposite the clutch cover. The actuating lever is disposed between the clutch cover and the pressure plate. The rotating cam ring assembly is also concentric with the axis of rotation and includes a plurality of discrete arcuate incline segments, as well as a spring engagement feature fixed relative to at least one of the arcuate incline segments. The stationary cam ring is also concentric with the axis of rotation and is rotatably fixed relative to the clutch cover. The stationary cam ring has a backside in engagement with one of the pressure plate and the actuating lever.

Abstract: A clutch cover for use in a diaphragm spring type clutch assembly and adapted to be disposed between a flywheel fixed to a motor vehicle engine crankshaft and a transmission input shaft includes a body portion, an engagement portion, an arcuate spring retention member, and an arcuate travel stop. The body portion is spaced from and extends across the flywheel and has a central aperture adapted to receive the input shaft. A first side of the body portion is directed toward the flywheel and a second side of the body portion is directed opposite the flywheel. The engagement portion extends downward from the body portion toward the flywheel for engagement therewith. The engagement portion defines a gap between the body portion and the flywheel. The arcuate spring retention member is located proximate to an outer periphery of the body portion at a first diameter at least as large in diameter as the diaphragm spring.

Abstract: A method for controlling the flow of a first call record campaign to a second call record campaign, by a telephony system. Wherein after determining that a first call record campaign is not being driven to its maximum capacity and there are no more call records to dial, the system assigns a second campaign attribute to agents having a first campaign attribute. In response, the system initiates processing of the second call record campaign by processing a call record from the second call record campaign. The system detects the completion of additional call records from the first call record campaign and initiates processing of a corresponding number of call records from the second call record campaign, thereby seamlessly transitioning from the ending of the first call record campaign to the beginning of the second call record campaign.
