Abstract
A friction clutch, especially for motor vehicles, with a carrier plate, which interacts with a pre-damper and has friction linings and acts on a flywheel, especially a dual-weight flywheel. The flywheel is connected to the crankshaft of an internal combustion engine. The pre-damper has a cover disk and an intermediate disk. The carrier plate has a plurality of apertures, circumferentially distributed evenly on a graduated circle for the purpose of accommodating springs of the pre-damper. The cover disk is directly engaged with the carrier plate.
