Abstract
A clutch release bearing suitable for automobile vehicles comprises an operating element designed to be acted on directly or indirectly by a control member. In practice this is a clutch release yoke. It also comprises a drive member designed to operate on the clutch release device of a clutch. This bears axially on the operating element either directly or indirectly. Coupling means couple the drive element to the operating element in the axial direction. The coupling means are in one piece with a substantially plane plate and have a generally U-shaped configuration, with two parallel arms joined by an arch-shaped curve middle part. They consist of two clips disposed at diametrically opposite positions relative to each other. Each is formed from a respective arm of the aforementioned plate, the whole forming a single member.
