摘要:
A motor vehicle friction clutch with an automatic adjustment for wear of the friction linings, whereby distributed over the circumference of the pressure plate there are several clearance sensors which act on the thrust plate with the interposition of an adjustment device. Each clearance sensor is thereby mounted in a hole in the thrust plate, so that it can move axially against the force of an adapter sleeve.
摘要:
A pressure plate arrangement (1) for a friction clutch of a motor vehicle is proposed, wherein an adjustment device (19), which automatically compensates for the wear of the friction linings (21), is disposed in the support path between a diaphragm spring (13) and a pressure plate (11), stressed against a flywheel (1) by the diaphragm spring (13) via friction linings (21) of a clutch disk (23). The adjustment device (19) has a pressure path compensating member (31), for example in the form of a radially resilient cone-shaped ring, which automatically compensates for possible play between the diaphragm spring (13) and the pressure plate (11). Distributed in the circumferential direction, a plurality of play transfer devices (37) is axially movably guided and arrested (for example by self-locking). The play transfer devices (37) rest against the flywheel (1) of the clutch housing (9) fixedly connected therewith and have levers (43) which limit the maximal wear compensation path of the compensating member (31). In this manner a wear compensation, which is independent of possible wear compensation mechanism of a hydraulic clutch disengagement system, takes place within the clutch. In addition, the diaphragm spring (13) of the proposed pressure plate arrangement retains its original position in relation to the flywheel (1) or the clutch housing (9), regardless of a possible wear compensation.
摘要:
The pressure plate unit for a motor vehicle friction clutch comprises a clutch housing (1a), a presser plate (3a) arranged in the clutch housing (1a) and guided non-rotatably but axially displaceably on the clutch housing (1a) and a clutch spring (13a) of substantially annular washer form arranged limitedly radially displaceably in the clutch housing (1a). The clutch spring is supported in the region of its external circumference axially on the clutch housing (1a) and on a diameter smaller than the diameter of the external circumference axially on the presser plate (3a). At least one radially resilient spring element is braced in between the clutch housing (1a) and the clutch spring (13a). The spring element holds the diaphragm spring in its original position in which the pressure plate unit was balanced in assembly, even during operation. The spring element can for example be a radially resilient spring sleeve or a U-shaped leaf spring which rests with one leg on the clutch housing and with the other leg on the diaphragm spring. Leaf springs which are secured with one end to the clutch housing or the diaphragm spring and are supported with the other end on the other component in each case are also suitable.
