Abstract
A lock-up device transmits a torque and includes a clutch disc, a piston, a cover plate and a support boss. The clutch disc is disposed between a front cover and a turbine. The piston is disposed between the front cover and the turbine. The piston is movable in an axial direction. The cover plate is disposed between the piston and the turbine, and includes a torque transmission part in an outer peripheral part thereof so as to transmit the torque to the clutch disc. The support boss has an annular shape. The support boss is fixed to an inner peripheral part of the front cover and includes a piston support part and a coupling part. The piston support part supports an inner peripheral end surface of the piston such that the piston is slidable thereon. The coupling part receives an inner peripheral part of the cover plate coupled thereto.
