The necedpity for a clutch arises from the fact that a gasoline engine, unlike an eleétric motor or a steam engine, cannot be started from rest under-its own power.

In addition to easy starting the clutch should be capable of con- siderable slipping as is uired in traffic, and should have a small mass so that when it is relemsed' it will . {soon lose its momentum. With a multiple disk clutch half the disks are keyed to the clutch casing and the alternate ones to the trans- mission shaft. This construction allows the disks a certain amount of endwise movement so that when the clutch is "engaged they are forced tightly together by 'a spring, When - the pressure of the spring is removed the clutch is disenga, $ The disks are made of steel, as a rule, although sometimea the alter- nate ones are bronze. They are thin and comparatively light, so that gen- erally speaking this clutch slows down very quickly and permits easy gear changing: Some mulitiple disk clutches run in oil anf} some are dry.
