Zusammenfassung: | A pressure plate assembly for a friction clutch includes a housing, a pressing plate arranged to rotate with the housing, and a force accumulator arranged to exert an axial force on the pressing plate. A wear take-up element between the accumulator and the pressing plate moves to adjust for wear, and an adjusting member is brought into a take-up starting position when wear occurs and is acted on by centrifugal force in order to carry out an adjusting movement wherein the adjusting member moves out of the take-up starting position. The adjusting member cooperates with the wear take-up element by way of a transmission member which moves with respect to the wear take-up element when the adjusting member is brought into the take-up starting position. During the adjusting movement, the transmission member is acted upon by the adjusting member and moves jointly with the wear take-up element. |
