Clutch device for drive train of motor vehicle allows reactivation of creep-process switch-off device when presence of driver is detected

摘要

The clutch device effects a creeping process in which a substantially reduced torque can be transmitted from the drive shaft to the driven shaft. The creep function is de-activatable and re-activatable. A creep-process switch-off device is connected and/or programmed so that it can only transmit a re-activation signal if the presence of the driver in the vehicle is detected. Independent claims are also included for: (a) a clutch device (b) the use of the clutch device in or for manufacturing a motor vehicle (c) a method of operating a clutch device
