Abstract: A clutch cover assembly for enabling an improvement in durability and an elongation of service life of facings (5) by maintaining cushioning function in axial direction and giving a sufficient thickness to the facings. In order to accomplish the above object, a driven plate (3) onto which the facings (5) are secured is formed into a flat-shape, a diaphragm spring (15) is made contact with a pressure plate (11) in such a manner as separable therefrom in axial direction, a cushioning conned disc spring (20) is compressively installed between the diaphragm spring (15) and the pressure plate (11), and the conned disc spring (20) exerts a pressing force on the pressure plate (11) during a prescribed cushioning movement of the diaphragm spring (15) from when it begins to leave the pressure plate (11) at time of releasing operation.
Abstract: This invention relates to a breathing device of a wet clutch, which lets atmospheric air into a clutch case only when a pressure inside the clutch case becomes negative pressure, said closed wet clutch having a forced lubrication system pumping oil from a tank through a pump to a spray nozzle and a discharge oil system conveying oil from a fixed suction nozzle, which opens to oil pressurized onto an inner peripheral surface of the clutch case when the case rotates to the tank.
