A central release mechanism, in particular for a hydraulic release system of a clutch system of a motor vehicle, including a central release mechanism housing with an annular central release mechanism piston chamber in which a central release mechanism piston is received axially movably by a hydraulic liquid that can be supplied to the central release mechanism piston chamber. The central release mechanism has at least one central release mechanism piston seal which seals the central release mechanism piston with respect to the central release mechanism piston chamber, and the central release mechanism piston seal is arranged in the central release mechanism housing so as to be axially secured at least on one side by a securing ring, the securing ring being connectable to the central release mechanism housing by means of a bayonet connection.

A friction clutch for a drivetrain of a motor vehicle includes and input part, an output part, a spring device, a pressure pot, and a connecting means connecting the pressure pot to the inner-plate carrier. The input part includes an outer-plate carrier which is rotatable about an axis of rotation by a drive motor, and an outer plate rotationally fastened to the outer-plate carrier. The input part includes a rotor carrier, an inner-plate carrier separate from the rotor carrier, and an inner plate rotationally fastened to the inner-plate carrier. The spring device is for bracing the outer plate and the inner plate together with a pressing force to close the friction clutch. The connecting means includes an actuating surface via which the friction clutch can be actuated by an actuating device.
