Driven part: driven plate, driven shaft (i.e. the first shaft of the transmission); pressing part: pressing spring; operating mechanism: release lever, release lever support column, swing pin, release sleeve, release bearing, clutch pedal wait.
The clutch is located in the flywheel housing between the engine and the gearbox, and the clutch assembly is fixed on the rear plane of the flywheel with screws, and the output shaft of the clutch is the input shaft of the gearbox. During the driving process of the car, the driver can step on or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily separate and gradually engage the engine and the gearbox, so as to cut off or transmit the power input from the engine to the transmission.
Clutches are common components in mechanical transmissions that can disengage or engage the transmission system at any time. The basic requirements are: smooth joint, rapid and thorough separation; convenient adjustment and repair; small external size; small mass; good wear resistance and sufficient heat dissipation capacity; Two types of friction.
The clutch is similar to a switch, which engages or disengages the power transmission function. The active part and the driven part of the clutch mechanism can be temporarily separated, and can be gradually engaged, and it is possible to rotate relatively during the transmission process. Rigid connection cannot be used between the driving part and the driven part of the clutch. Any form of car has a clutch device, but the form is different.
