Automotive clutches

1. Automotive Clutches By: oureducation.in

2. Introduction In the simplest application, automotive clutches connect and disconnect two rotating shafts (drive shafts or  line shafts). In these devices, one shaft is typically attached to a motor or other power unit (the driving member) while the other shaft (the driven member) provides output power for work.

3. Types of Clutch The various clutches underlying in this category are explained as below :- Multi-Plate clutch Wet and dry clutch Centrifugal clutch Cone clutch

4. Multi-Plate Clutch: T his clutch type usually have multiple plates( both of driving and driven members usually cut in the form of splines which are differentiated by the pressure plates).

5. Wet and Dry Clutches : A  wet clutch is immersed in a cooling lubricating fluid that also keeps surfaces clean and provides smoother performance and longer life. A  dry clutch, as the name implies, is not bathed in liquid and should be, literally, dry.

6. Centrifugal C lutch: A  centrifugal clutch is used in some vehicles (e.g., mopeds) and also in other applications where the speed of the engine defines the state of the clutch, for example, in a  chainsaw.

7. Cone Clutch: Cone clutch has conical friction surfaces . The cone's taper means that a given amount of movement of the actuator makes the surfaces approach (or recede) much more slowly than in a disc clutch.
