Abstract
A dual clutch which has two friction clutches, which have a central pressure-exerting plate and two pressure plates which are axially movable relative to the pressure-exerting plate with the interposition of the friction linings of two clutch disks, which each mesh with a gearbox input shaft of actuating devices. The pressure plates are acted on by transmission elements by the actuating devices directly without a lever action. Furthermore, for the cooling and lubrication of the actuating bearings between the actuating devices and the transmission elements, an annular chamber can be formed which has an increased fluid volume.
