Abstract

A clutch assembly for mounting to a rotatable element adjacent to a non-rotatable element. The clutch assembly has a first clutch member capable of being mounted to the rotatable element, a clutch body capable of being mounted to the rotatable element adjacent to the first clutch member, and a second clutch member axially movably interconnected with the clutch body. The first and second clutch members are normally biased into engagement. A brake is interposed the non-rotating element and the clutch body. The brake is automatically operable to inhibit rotation of the clutch body upon selective disengagement of the first and second clutch members.
