Abstract

A disengaging device for a clutch with an energy store that releases energy upon disengagement and stores energy upon re-engagement. This device is compactly constructed and allows force to be advantageously reinforced. Mechanisms are used to increase the energy in the energy store in relation to the force arising in the disengaging device. In addition, the invention further comprises mechanisms to divert force, or a roller that is guided via a guide surface and a bevel that interacts with the energy store. Furthermore, a unit of the energy store and a drive are arranged so that they receive forces parallel to each other.
