Why does the car move when releasing the clutch?
1 Answers
The principle behind the car moving when releasing the clutch is that the engine crankshaft drives the flywheel to rotate, and the flywheel drives the friction plate to rotate. When the driver releases the clutch, the pressure plate presses against the friction plate, causing the flywheel to drive the friction plate, and thus the car moves. Here are some related details: 1. Clutch: The clutch is located inside the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission. The clutch assembly is fixed to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws, and the output shaft of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission. The clutch is a common component in mechanical transmission systems, allowing the transmission system to be separated or engaged at any time. 2. Clutch requirements: The basic requirements for a clutch include smooth engagement, quick and thorough separation; ease of adjustment and repair; compact size; light weight; good wear resistance and sufficient heat dissipation capacity; and easy and effortless operation. Common types include jaw clutches and friction clutches.
