Abstract
A clutch disc includes an elastic mounting to absorb both wobbling movement and to compensate for axially offsetting transmission components. Between the hub and the components which can rotate with respect to the hub, there is a spring element which makes it possible by means of two different types of fingers to accomplish both a radially elastic centering and an axially elastic clamping. The clutch disc can thereby absorb both wobbling movements and axial offsets.
