Abstract
An actuation mechanism for a clutch, includes: an actuation element designed to be applied with an actuating force and to be shifted in an actuation direction by same; a transfer element designed to carry out a shift in the actuation direction; and a compensation mechanism designed to apply a reinforcing clamping force for the frictionally engaged transfer of the actuating force between the transfer element and the actuation element, when an actuating force is applied to the actuation element. The compensation mechanism has a friction element and a counter surface which are designed to bring about the reinforcing clamping force via a frictional connection when applying the actuating force. The friction element and the counter surface are designed to generate the reinforcing clamping force via a supporting force resulting from a deflection of the actuating force. The reinforcing clamping force has at least the value of the supporting force.
