Abstract
A friction clutch for a motor vehicle for frictional coupling a first shaft and a second shaft, comprising a plurality of clutch discs articulated interactively on a clutch basket and a clutch hub, wherein the first shaft is connected to the clutch basket and the second shaft is connected to the clutch hub and the clutch discs are selectively coupled by an associated actuation unit. Associated with the clutch basket is an oil-collection and guiding arrangement through which oil spun off the clutch basket is collected and delivered into a collection region outside the clutch basket. A switching device coupled to the actuation unit controls the backflow of the oil from the collection region outside the clutch basket (KK) in the direction of the clutch discs.
