Do Automatic Transmission Cars Need to Depress the Clutch?
1 Answers
Automatic transmission cars do not have a clutch, so there is no need to depress the clutch pedal. Here is an introduction to the clutch: Function of the Clutch: The clutch acts like a switch, engaging or disengaging the power transmission. The clutch mechanism allows the driving part and the driven part to temporarily separate and gradually engage, and they may also rotate relative to each other during the transmission process. There must be no rigid connection between the driving and driven parts of the clutch. All types of vehicles have a clutch device, but they vary in form. Classification of Clutches: Clutches can be divided into four types: electromagnetic clutches, magnetic particle clutches, friction clutches, and hydraulic clutches.
