Cars generally use a clutch where one plate (the driven plate) is clamped by a clutch cover between a plate in this cover and the flywheel that the cover is bolted to.

Some motorcycles use a multiplate clutch where smooth plates are fixed alternately with friction plates, the whole assembly being clamped together by a spring-loaded plate and released by a rod pushed aginste the plate through a hole through the centre shaft.

Some machines use dog clutches. These are very simple clutches where there is no slippage, simply a plate with two large lugs moving up to another with gaps where these lugs engage.
