TORQUE TRANSMISSION ARRANGEMENT

A torque transmission arrangement includes a cylindrical friction element carrier and a snap-ring, the friction element carrier carries a pressing plate and a reaction plate of an outer friction-based torque-transmission mechanism rotationally secured to an outer surface and a pressing plate and a reaction plate of an inner friction-based torque-transmission mechanism rotationally secured to an inner surface. The friction element carrier includes through-holes distributed around the circumference of the friction element carrier. The snap-ring includes radial projections distributed around the inner or outer circumference of the snap-ring and configured to extend through said through-holes when the snap-ring is mounted on the friction element carrier, such that the snap-ring protrudes in a radial direction beyond both the inner and outer surfaces of the friction element carrier for retaining the inner and outer reaction plates of the inner and outer friction-based torque-transmission mechanisms on the friction element carrier.
