Abstract:
Clutch bearing device comprising:an actuating element intended to be mounted on an operating element, the actuating element comprising a rolling bearing provided with a rotating race and a non-rotating race, said bearing being able to be displaced radially with respect to the operating element to self-align with a clutch diaphragm, the non-rotating race comprising an inwardly-directed radial portion, a means of axially securing the actuating element to the operating element, and a self-alignment member centred on the non-rotating raced and provided with axially elastic elements, so that said self-alignment member exerts, on the means of axial securing and on the non-rotating race, axial forces in opposite directions and keeps the non-rotating race in permanent axial contact with a radial bearing surface of the operating element.
