Zusammenfassung: | A centrifugal clutch including a driver adapted to engage and be rotated by an input shaft, a drum adapted to engage a driven component, a plurality of shoes located between the driver and the drum, and a plurality of springs, each spring engaged with adjacent shoes for urging the shoes together. The shoes are radially movable between an outward position in which the shoes contact the drum and an inward position in which the shoes are spaced apart from the drum. Each shoe has an engagement surface which is arranged to contact the drum, and a support. One end of the support is attached to the engagement surface and the other end extends radially inward. A pair of spring attachment mounts are formed on the radially inward end of the support. Each spring is engaged with one spring attachment mount on a shoe. |
