Multi-disk clutch for gearbox of motor vehicle, has mechanical control unit coaxial with respect to input element and locking disks, and pin and seat permitting relative linear separation of control unit and input element

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The clutch (3) has an input element (9), and a mechanical control unit (11) which is co-axial with respect to the input element and locks disks (29, 40). A pin (48) and seat (49) are mounted on the input element and the control unit, respectively, and amplify locking force applied on the disks. The pin and seat permit a relative linear separation of the control unit and input element during transmission of torque. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Used for a gearbox of a motor vehicle (claimed). #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The pin and seat permit the relative linear separation of the control unit and input element, thus obtaining sufficient locking pressure on the disks without requiring hydraulic control units, and hence reducing the transmission of engine torque. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a partial section view of a gearbox. 1 : Gearbox 3 : Multi-disk clutch 9 : Input element 11 : Mechanical control unit 29, 40 : Disks 48 : Pin 49 : Seat.
