We are fond of the word ‘Clutch’ in the Automobile industry. The Clutches are connected to the car Engine. It links between the Engine & transmission system. Let’s talk about the Types of Clutches that we use in our motor Vehicles. The various categories of the clutch are present in the vehicles.
There are two types of Clutches are present in the Vehicle. Such as; Single Plate Clutch & Multi Plate Clutch. Take a Study in deep about both Clutches as follows:
Single-Plate Clutch is also known as One-Plate Clutch. The Clutch has two important Shaft I.e., Driving Shaft & Driven Shaft.
Single Plate Clutch includes different parts, that helps to complete the work. Such as; Pressure plate, spring, hub, flywheel, input mechanism for engagement etc. It contains both the side friction lining because of the pressure plate & flywheel.
A multi-plate clutch is a Clutch that has various plates in it. The clutch is used in Heavy vehicles. It takes place at the engine flywheel to transfer the power to the engine shaft and transmission shaft. Hence, It is also available in motorcycles for transmitting high torque.
The Multi-plate clutch includes various parts, Such as; Pressure plate, clutch plate, thrust springs, pedal clutch, Sp-lined shaft, flywheel & Diaphragm Spring.
Followings are the advantages & disadvantages of Multi-Plate Clutch:
These are two types of Clutch that we are using in our vehicles. I hope you understand its advantages and disadvantages. Please share the content with your friends. I hope through you it helps many of us to understand it. For more amazing machinery thing, purpose & guide. Stay Tuned with Us.
It is called a clutch because it "clutches" or grabs hold of the rotating shafts to connect or disconnect them.
The clutch was not invented by a specific individual, but rather developed and refined over time by multiple engineers and inventors.
A clutch works by engaging and disengaging the connection between the engine and the transmission, allowing for smooth gear shifting and control over power transmission.
The function of a clutch is to connect and disconnect the engine from the transmission, enabling smooth gear changes and control over power transmission.
The clutch controls speed by engaging or disengaging the connection between the engine and the transmission, allowing for adjustment of power transfer and the ability to shift gears smoothly.
The clutch is used to connect and disconnect power transmission between the engine and transmission, while the brake is used to slow down or stop the rotational motion of a vehicle or machinery.
