Is a Dual Clutch an Automatic Transmission Car?
1 Answers
A dual clutch is an automatic transmission car. Below is relevant information about dual clutches: 1. Introduction: The clutch is located between the engine and the transmission, serving as the 'switch' for power transfer between them. It is a transmission mechanism that can both transmit and cut off power. Its main functions are to ensure smooth vehicle starts, reduce the impact on transmission gears during gear shifts, and prevent overload in the transmission system. In conventional cars, gear shifts are achieved through the engagement and disengagement of the clutch, which temporarily interrupts power transfer. 2. Structure: The DSG transmission mainly consists of a multi-plate wet dual clutch, a three-shaft gear transmission, an automatic gear shift mechanism, and an electronically controlled hydraulic system. The most innovative core components are the dual clutch and the three-shaft gearbox.
