How are the operating mechanisms of clutches classified?
1 Answers
The structure of a clutch consists of four parts: the driving part, the driven part, the pressing mechanism, and the operating mechanism. The following is an introduction to clutches: Function of a clutch: A clutch is similar to a switch, engaging or disengaging the power transmission. The driving part and the driven part of the clutch mechanism can be temporarily separated or gradually engaged, and they may also rotate relative to each other during transmission. There should be no rigid connection between the driving and driven parts of the clutch. Any type of vehicle has a clutch device, although the forms may vary. Classification of clutches: Clutches are divided into four types: electromagnetic clutches, magnetic particle clutches, friction clutches, and hydraulic clutches.
