ABSTRACT

A clutch device includes a pressure plate movable toward or away from a clutch
center and rotatable with respect to the clutch center. The pressure plate
includes a flange extending radially outward from an outer circumferential
edge of a body, pressure-side fitting teeth projecting in a first direction
from a front surface of the flange, holding input-side rotating plates and a
portion of output-side rotating plates being arranged in a circumferential
direction, a body-side recessed portion recessed in the first direction from a
second direction-side surface of the body, and a flange-side recessed portion
recessed in the first direction from a back surface of the flange. As seen in
an axial direction of an output shaft, the flange-side recessed portion at
least partially overlaps one of the pressure-side fitting teeth.
