This is known as the TwinDisk clutch and has a pair of driven but only one drivingplate, thus reversing the usual single plate arrangementand materially increasing the weight and inertia of thedriven member. No engaging springs are used in theclutch. It is of the locking toggle type and consequentlymust be positively engaged and disengaged. For thisreason it is not suited to or intended for use on automo-biles or trucks, but can be used in some tractor applica-tions. It is adjusted easily by disengaging the springretained pin projecting from the threaded toggle carrierring, and then turning this ring until the pin falls intoanother hole on the driven member.
