Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A clutch assembly for a manual shift transmission includes a first shaft, which carries a first clutch disc, a second shaft that is coaxial to the first shaft. The second shaft carries an axially shiftable second clutch disc, a first ramp, of which at least one section describes a helical line that is coaxial to the shafts, and a first actuating body. The first actuating body is clamped between the first ramp and the second clutch disc and can be moved about a common axis of the shafts between an open position, in which the clutch discs are spaced from one another, and a closing position, in which the clutch discs contact one another in a frictionally joined manner.
