Abstract
A clutch disk assembly includes a hub flange, a disk plate disposed on one side of the hub flange, a control plate disposed between the hub flange and the disk plate and elastic device positioned between the hub flange and the control plate for establishing a first stage of the torsion characteristics of the clutch disk assembly. A regulating device in the form of a cam connected to the hub flange regulates relative rotation between the hub flange and the control plate so that upon high speed rotation of the clutch disk assembly, relative rotational movement between the control plate and the hub flange is inhibited and operation of the elastic device ceases.
