  • Patent number: 11920640
    Abstract: A slave device is provided for a clutch system of a motor vehicle, in particular a clutch slave cylinder, in the form of a concentric slave cylinder. The slave device includes a housing element having, in its interior, a pressure chamber and an annular gap arranged on the outside of the housing element wherein the annular gap is in fluid communication with the pressure chamber. A clutch system for a vehicle includes the slave device, clutch apparatus for connecting an input side to an output side, a transmission housing on the output side, and seals of the slave device lying against the transmission housing in the radial direction for sealing the annular gap.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11130399
    Abstract: A multi-clutch device for a hybrid module includes a separating clutch, a dual clutch device, a first pivot bearing, a common rotary part, a second pivot bearing, a gear element, and a clamping device. The separating clutch is for transmitting torque from an internal combustion engine to the multi-clutch device. The dual-clutch device is for transmitting torque to a drivetrain. The dual clutch device includes a first partial clutch and a second partial clutch. The common rotary part is mounted rotatably by the first pivot bearing, and couples the separating clutch, the first partial clutch, and the second partial clutch in a rotationally fixed manner. The gear element is mounted rotatably by the second pivot bearing, and forms a gear between the electrical machine and the multi-clutch device. The clamping device is for clamping the common rotary part and the gear element against each other in the axial direction.
