Abstract
A motor vehicle includes a primary unit and a secondary unit, i.e. the engine and gearbox respectively. The clutch release bearing includes a sliding manoeuvring element carried by the secondary unit and carrying a ball bearing, the outer ring of which carries a housing which is so conformed as to define the actuating element of the clutch release bearing that engages with the clutch diaphragm, typically through a standard main coupling member carried by the diaphragm. The actuating element is formed with an engagement recess in which is fitted an intermediate coupling member coupling the actuating element to the main coupling member, while the manoeuvring element of the clutch release bearing is of generally tubular shape.
