Clutch monitoring system for manual transmission vehicles

Abstract

The invention provides a monitoring system for a clutch of an MT (manual transmission) device. The monitoring system comprises at least one displacement sensor, a displacement processing unit and a monitoring unit. The displacement sensors and the displacement processing unit are arranged on a flywheel of the vehicle clutch. The monitoring unit is arranged in the vehicle. Output ends of the displacement sensors are connected with the displacement processing unit which is connected with the monitoring unit. By the use of the monitoring system, state of the clutch is accurately detected, and according to a detection result, the driver accurately knows that whether the clutch is in the separation and semi-separation (namely semi-linkage) state or the attachment (namely linkage) state, thereby reasonably and safely driving the vehicle; besides, state of a friction lining of the clutch can be detected, whether or not the friction lining of the clutch is damaged or defected is determined, and in this way, potential faults are removed in advance, potential safety hazards are eliminated and driving safety is further guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of automobiles, in particular to a clutch monitoring system for a manual transmission automobile. Background technique [0002] Existing cars are generally divided into manual transmission vehicles and automatic transmission vehicles according to the way of shifting operation, and there are advantages and disadvantages between manual transmission vehicles and automatic transmission vehicles. For example, manual transmission vehicles are more difficult to drive, but manual transmission vehicles The fuel economy of the car is high; while the driving difficulty of the automatic transmission is low, but the fuel economy is poor. However, for manual drivers, the operation of manual transmission during driving is more complicated. For example, when a novice is driving, the control of the clutch is not proficient enough, which may easily lead to stalling, reversing, etc., which may cause accidents, even for skilled drivers. ...

[0002] Existing cars are generally divided into manual transmission vehicles and automatic transmission vehicles according to the way of shifting operation, and there are advantages and disadvantages between manual transmission vehicles and automatic transmission vehicles. For example, manual transmission vehicles are more difficult to drive, but manual transmission vehicles The fuel economy of the car is high; while the driving difficulty of the automatic transmission is low, but the fuel economy is poor

However, for manual drivers, the operation of manual transmission during driving is more complicated. For example, when a novice is driving, the control of the clutch is not proficient enough, which may easily lead to stalling, reversing, etc., which may cause accidents, even for skilled drivers. For example, because the friction plate of the manual transmission clutch is prone to wear and cracks during use, but the driver cannot control the above-mentioned symptoms of the friction plate in real time during normal driving. Only when the vehicle is maintained can it be found, thus likely to cause traffic accidents
