Abstract

801,979. Friction clutches. GENERAL MOTORS CORPORATION. April 5, 1957 [April 19, 1.956], No. 11169/57. Class 80 (2). In a multi-plate clutch for use in an automatic transmission, the plates 26 of one set, preferably the driven set, are of plain metal with axially aligned radial undulations, whilst those 34 of the other set are flat and have cemented friction facings 38. The flat plates 34 are more conformable than the undulated ones 26, as by being thinner or of smaller diameter, to become partly undulated by initial engaging pressure of plates 40, 42, the final engaging pressure substantially flattening all the plates. The friction facings of the flat plates 34 may comprise concentric rings 60, 62, Fig. 5, of cork and fibrous material, or be wholly of fibrous material with surface grooves which may be spiral, radial, radially inclined, or in intersecting sets of radial and circumferential or inclined radial grooves. Dimensions and thickness of the plates are specified. Lubricant is supplied to the plates through passages 50, 52 in the driving (or driven) shaft 30 and leaves through a return passage 54 in the driven (or driving) sleeve 22.
