What Causes the Clutch Not to Disengage?
1 Answers
Because the clutch disc is made of asbestos material, the clutch pressure plate is metal, and the rivets in the middle of the clutch disc are also metal. If the disc is severely worn, the rivets will be exposed, causing the clutch to slip against the clutch plate at high temperatures and preventing disengagement. Below is a related introduction to the clutch: The clutch is located inside the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission. The clutch assembly is secured to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws, and the output shaft of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission. During vehicle operation, the driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily disconnect or gradually engage the engine and transmission, thereby cutting off or transmitting the engine's power to the transmission. The clutch is a common component in mechanical transmission systems, allowing the drivetrain to be disconnected or engaged at any time. Its basic requirements include smooth engagement, quick and thorough disengagement, ease of adjustment and repair, compact size, light weight, good wear resistance, sufficient heat dissipation capacity, and convenient and effortless operation. Commonly used clutches are divided into two types: jaw clutches and friction clutches.
