Zusammenfassung:In some examples, a cone clutch assembly includes an inner cone member rotationally coupled to a first shaft, the inner cone member defining a first friction surface; and an outer cone member rotationally coupled to a second shaft, the outer cone member defining a second friction surface opposing the first friction surface. The inner cone member and outer cone member may be selectively engaged and disengaged from another. The inner cone member and/or the outer cone member may include a first metallic layer and a second metallic layer separated by an open structure core. The open structure core is configured to allow flow of a fluid between the first metallic layer and the second metallic layer to remove heat from the at least one of the inner cone member or the outer cone member.
