What is the function of the clutch operating mechanism?
1 Answers
The function of the clutch operating mechanism is: 1. To gradually increase the driving force of the car, allowing for smooth starting; 2. To temporarily separate the engine and transmission for gear shifting; 3. To prevent overload of the transmission system; 4. To reduce torsional vibration impact from the engine and prolong the service life of transmission gears. Severe clutch wear can lead to: 1. Car slipping and insufficient power; 2. Difficulty in starting the car and ignition problems; 3. Poor climbing performance and increased fuel consumption. The working principle of the clutch is: 1. When the inner ring is fixed, the outer ring can rotate freely clockwise as the wedge block does not lock; 2. When the outer ring rotates counterclockwise, the wedge block locks, preventing the outer ring from rotating.
