Abstract
At least one first friction member is connected with a fluid-filled housing to rotate jointly therewith, and at least one second friction member connected with a driven member so as to rotate jointly therewith. The friction members can be pressed against one another when at least one pressing member is acted upon by fluid. A pressure storage arrangement associated with the at least one pressing member can be brought into a pressure storage state when the at least one pressing member is acted upon by pressure fluid and acts upon the pressing member with the stored pressure.
