Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018233758A1] The invention relates to a centrifugal clutch (1) for a drive train of a motor vehicle, having an input component (2) which serves for the introduction of torque, an output component (3) which serves for the discharge of torque, and a switchable friction unit (4) which is arranged between the input component (2) and the output component (3) and connects the input component (2) to the output component (3) in a torque-transmitting manner by way of a frictionally-locking connection, wherein there are an engine-side centrifugal mass (5) and a transmission-side centrifugal mass (6) for actuating the friction unit (4), which centrifugal masses (5; 6) are operatively connected to an engine-side and transmission-side bent sheet metal piece (7, 8) in such a way that a radial displacement of at least one of the centrifugal masses (5; 6) forces an axial displacement of the respective bent sheet metal piece (7; 8), wherein at least one of the centrifugal masses (5; 6) has a cut-out (9) which is such that at least one device (10) which is fixed to the input component has an arm (11) which engages into the cut-out (9) in such a way that guidance of the radial displacement of at least one of the centrifugal masses (5; 6) is ensured.
