DEVICE FOR SUPPLYING HYDRAULIC FLUID TO A HYDRAULIC CLUTCH

摘要

Hydraulically operated friction clutches mounted on a rotary shaft within a stationary case receive hydraulic fluid through a longitudinal bore in the shaft communicating with a pressure chamber in each of the clutches. Concentric stationary oil feeding pipes extend axially into one end of the bore, and bushings are provided in the bore for an end portion of each pipe. Stationary supporting members are provided for each pipe, these supporting members each comprising a thin annular plate having inner and outer portions in the same plane and the central portion axially offset therefrom. Sealing rings are clamped between the outer periphery of each supporting member and the case, and additional sealing rings are clamped between each pipe and the supporting member, respectively.
