Abstract
The present invention relates to a double clutch device (2) with a first clutch (18) for selective torque transmission between a clutch input side (26) and a first clutch output side (28) and a second clutch (20) for selective torque transmission between the clutch input side (26) and a second clutch output side (30), wherein an actuating force (78) counter to the reset force (102) of a first spring device (100) may be applied to the first clutch (18) via a first force transmission element (76) and an actuating force (82) counter to the reset force (116) of a second spring device (114) may be applied to second clutch (20) via a second force transmission element (80). The first spring device (100) extends through at least one recess (104) in the second force transmission element (80).
