Abstract
The friction clutch has on the one hand a clutch engagement device comprising a diaphragm (3) and on the other hand a linkage (80), an actuator (50, 60, 70, 90, 91) for controlling the said linkage, and an adjustment device (10), for compensating for the wear on the friction linings (7) the actuator has an electric motor (50), a mechanical transmission (60) with an input element (51) and an elastic assistance device (70) bearing on a fixed part (91, 66) and on a movable part (61) forming a nut for cooperating with the output shaft (51) of the electric motor, the movable part (61) forms the output element of the mechanical transmission (60) while being able to act on the linkage (80) while the device for taking up wear (10) is mounted inside the declutching device.
