  • Clutch arrangement
    Patent number: 11118663
    Abstract: A clutch arrangement has a clutch housing and a clutch element carrier, one of which receives at least one clutch element and the other of which is configured as a friction area carrier for a friction area so that, to produce a frictional engagement connection, the clutch element can be brought into operative connection with the friction area or, to cancel the frictional engagement connection, the clutch element can be separated from the friction area. The clutch element has a support for a friction facing, and the clutch element has a holding device radially adjacent to the friction facing for receiving the support of the clutch element. The support has at its side opposite the friction facing a further friction facing acting as seal.
