Patent number: 11890937Abstract: A first support is open toward a first side in an axial direction. A press member is at such a position as to press a first friction plate and second friction plate of a friction clutch device from the first side in the axial direction. An intermediate member includes a body between the press member and a second support in the axial direction and a protrusion protruding toward the first side of the body in the axial direction. The press member has an insertion hole extending through the press member in the axial direction and configured to receive the protrusion.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 2020Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: AISIN FUKUI CORPORATIONInventors: Shingo Yamashita, Kenta Tamabayashi, Yu Takizawa, Hiromasa Hayashi
