    摘要: A clutch assembly to adapt a clutch for use with a mud motor and a power take off (PTO) assembly is provided. The motor includes a body and a driving shaft, wherein the PTO assembly includes a PTO housing and a driven shaft. The clutch assembly includes a centrifugal clutch and a clutch housing. The clutch includes a hub that engages with the driving shaft, a shoe containing a plurality of fly-weights and an elastic member, and an outer drum casing adapted to selectively engage with the plurality of fly-weights when the rotational speed of the driving shaft is above a predetermined threshold. The clutch housing surrounds the centrifugal clutch and allows the clutch to be installed between the body of the motor and the PTO housing. The outer drum casing has a shaft fixed thereto that is adapted to engage with the driven shaft of the PTO assembly.
