Abstract

A locking clutch has a piston which is movably mounted axially in relation to a fixed wall and rotationally connected to the wall by tongues. For coupling the tongues to the piston, an attachment has a first portion, which is fixed to the side of the tongues that is opposite to the piston, and a second portion, which to engage the first portion, only requires attachment action on the side of the piston.
