Abstract: The abstract relates to a hydraulic clutch release system, particularly for motor vehicles. The system 1 has a master cylinder and a slave cylinder, and the slave cylinder has a piston 7 which is annular in form and works inside an annular cylinder 2. The leading end of the cylinder is fitted with a seal 9 which is mounted on a one-piece seal carrier 10a through an undercut part of the carrier in which the seal fits without leaving any empty space.

Abstract: A hydraulic system for a motor vehicle has at least one pressure restricting valve with a housing that has two or more connections. At least one conduit cross-section in the housing can be closed by means of a closing body that is movable axially against the action of an energy accumulator. At least a part of the axial travel of the closing body is damped by means of a damping device.

Abstract: A sliding sleeve made of polymeric material for clutch release bearings comprising a hollow cylindrical hub element (1) provided with a radially outwardly directed ring collar (3) on its outer surface, a ring-shaped metal flange (4) abutting against the surface of the collar (3) facing the clutch forming a stop surface 5 for a radially adjustable raceway of a roller bearing, characterized in that the metal flange (4) has at least one axially directed collar (6,9) extending over at least part of its inner and/or outer circumference surface, the collar resting on the outer surface (2,10) of the hub element (1) and/or the ring collar (3) under radial prestress.

Abstract: An inner bearing ring of a clutch release bearing for an automotive vehicle clutch equipped with diaphragm springs, whereby the clutch release bearing comprises a rolling bearing with two concentric bearing rings arranged on a sliding sleeve between which rings rolling elements roll, and whereby a washer is fixed on the side face of the rotating inner ring which faces the clutch and which during operation acts with the spring finger ends of the diaphragm spring, characterized in that the inner ring (6) is formed from a metal raceway element (9) and an annular element, whereby the annular element forms the circular washer (10) which with its side not facing the clutch is supported on the raceway element (9) and which has an axial extension (12) which is inserted clearance-free into the bore of the metal raceway element (9) and which on its end (13) opposite the washer (10) engages behind the end of the metal raceway element (9) so that the raceway element (9) is retained in a form-locking way on the annular el

Abstract: A release bearing assembly for a push type motor vehicle clutch, one side of which is acted upon by a clutch lever via a housing of the release bearing and against the other side of which clutch disk springs are arranged whereby the housing is axially displaceable along a guiding tube characterized in that the housing is provided with an axially displaceable sleeve, a pressure spring acts between a contact surface of the housing and a collar of the sliding sleeve and in the engaged state of the clutch, the sliding sleeve abuts against a stop face which causes the pressure spring to press the release bearing via the housing concentrically against the clutch disk springs.

Abstract: A pull-type friction clutch with a release bearing for a motor vehicle in which at least two locking elements spaced at the periphery of an axially displaceable thrust ring to allow it to engage axially with a rotating inner ring of the release bearing in a manner that these two elements get more firmly locked when pulled away from one another characterized in that the locking elements (15, 16, 17) have an angular cross-section and are mounted on the thrust ring (9) about an axle (18, 19, 20) so as to be able to swing into a locking position, whereby the edges of the locking elements (15, 16, 17) facing the inner ring (22) are shaped as hooks (21) which engage with a collar (24) formed on the inner ring (22) and the edges of the locking elements (15, 16, 17) away from the inner ring (22) have the shape of angle segments (31) whose surfaces (32) bear against the side of the pressure ring (9) facing away from the hooks (21 ).

Abstract: A clutch release sleeve for motor vehicles comprising a housing having at two opposite points of its circumference radially extending lugs against which two parallel arms of a clutch fork abut to embrace the housing within reach of two flat faces, characterized in that the lugs (2) have a radial extension (a) of at least 10% of the housing diameter (D) and a tangential extension (b) of at least 25% of the housing diameter (D) and are offset laterally in opposite directions in relation to a straight line running through the sleeve axis (9), on one hand, and through the points of contact (10) of the clutch fork (4) and the lugs (2) on the other hand so that they project over the straight line further in one direction than in the other direction wherein the flat faces are perpendicular to the straight line.
