Abstract

An end disk of a multi-disk clutch is described, which has a ring plate, the ring plate having a central opening and at least one axial impression on a front side via which a corresponding projection is formed on the opposite front side.

Claims (15)

1. An end disk of a multi-disk clutch, comprising:

a ring plate having a central opening and at least one axial impression on one front side, via which a corresponding projection is formed on the opposite front side,

wherein the end disk has a multi-tooth profile on a radially inner peripheral edge or on a radially outer peripheral edge,

wherein a plurality of radially spaced apart circumferential, annular impressions and associated projections run annularly around the central opening.

2. The end disk according to claim 1 , wherein the impressions and the associated projections run centrically to central axis of the end disk.

3. The end disk according to claim 1 , wherein the impressions are concentric with each other.

4. The end disk according to claim 1 , wherein all of the projections define a plane outer surface arranged in a radial plane to a central axis of the end disk.

5. An assembly of a plurality of end disks of a multi-disk clutch, comprising:

each end disk having a ring plate which has a central opening and at least one axial impression on one front side, via which a corresponding projection is formed on the opposite front side,

wherein the plurality of end disks are made of sheet metal and each end disk has the same sheet metal wall thickness,

wherein a respective axial extension of the projection is different when comparing the plurality of end disks with each other, and

wherein the plurality of end disks has identical geometries except for the different axial extension of the projection and corresponding different axial depth of the impression.

6. A method of manufacturing an assembly of a plurality of end disks of a multi-disk clutch, each end disk having a ring plate which has a central opening and at least one axial impression on one front side, via which a corresponding projection is formed on the opposite front side, the plurality of end disks being made of sheet metal and each end disk has the same sheet metal wall thickness, a respective axial extension of the projections being different when comparing the plurality of end disks with each other, the method comprising:

providing ring plates of sheet metal, which all have same sheet metal wall thickness and same external dimensions, and

manufacturing the plurality of end disks with different axial disk thickness by producing impressions of different depths and thus projections which differ in their axial extent by means of a forming tool which penetrates the plurality of end disks at different depths.
