[0002] The dual-mass flywheel has two important functions in the use of the automobile transmission system, namely good damping effect and sufficient torque transmission capacity. The transmission system reduces the vibration and noise of the automobile engine through the dual-mass flywheel, and the dual-mass flywheel simultaneously transmits the torque of the engine to the gearbox.

[0003] The traditional dual-mass flywheel mainly relies on the built-in damping spring and the friction damping between the two-stage flywheels to eliminate vibration and noise. The basic friction damping of the dual-mass flywheel is relatively small and fixed. During the starting or shutdown stage of the automobile, the engine speed fluctuates greatly. Only the original fixed damping cannot achieve good damping effect. The theory and experiments prove that increasing the damping has a better effect on reducing vibration and noise. However, if only the basic friction damping of the dual-mass flywheel is increased, the sensitivity of the flywheel during normal driving of the automobile may be reduced, and the vibration isolation performance of the spring may be affected. Therefore, different sizes of damping need to be designed under different driving conditions of the automobile. SUMMARY

[0041] Reference Figures 1 to 8The application discloses a double-mass flywheel with step damping characteristics, which comprises a driving disc 100, a spring mounting groove 110 arranged on the driving disc 100 and extending along the circumference of the driving disc 100, a damping spring 120 accommodated in the spring mounting groove 110, a pressing plate 200 fixedly connected to the driving disc 100, a damping washer 300 rotatably arranged on the driving disc 100, a plurality of bosses 310 axially arranged on the damping washer 300 and uniformly distributed around the circumference of the damping washer 300, a disc spring 400 arranged between the damping washer 300 and the pressing plate 200, one end of the disc spring 400 abutting against the pressing plate 200, the other end of the disc spring 400 abutting against the damping washer 300, a flange disc 500 rotatably arranged in the driving disc 100, a groove 510 arranged on the flange disc 500 and corresponding to the bosses 310, the bosses 310 being embedded in the groove 510, the circumferential length of the groove 510 being greater than the circumferential length of the bosses 310, a pushing block 520 arranged at the edge of the flange disc 500 and having a pushing distance with the end of the damping spring 120, the pushing block 520 being used for pushing the damping spring 120, a cover plate 600 arranged on the driving disc 100 and used for encapsulating the damping spring 120 together with the spring mounting groove 110, a driven disc 700 fixedly connected to the flange disc 500, a damping ring 800 abutting against the cover plate 600 and rotatable relative to the cover plate 600, and a sheet spring 900 fixedly connected to the driven disc 700 at the inner side and abutting against the damping ring 800 at the outer side, the sheet spring 900 being used for pressing the damping ring 800. The driving disc 100, the damping washer 300, the disc spring 400, the flange disc 500, the cover plate 600, the driven disc 700, the damping ring 800 and the sheet spring 900 are coaxially arranged.During the operation of the automobile, the engine drives the driving disc 100 to rotate, and the driving disc 100 drives the driven disc 700 to rotate. Since the pressing plate 200 is fixedly connected with the driving disc 100, and there is pressure between the disc spring 400 and the damping washer 300, the pressing plate 200, the disc spring 400 and the damping washer 300 will rotate together with the driving disc 100. When the driving disc 100 and the driven disc 700 are relatively twisted, the flange plate 500 is also twisted with the driving disc 100. Since the flange plate 500 and the driven disc 700 are fixedly connected, similarly, the damping ring 800 pressed by the lamella spring 900 will rotate on the cover plate 600, forming the basic frictional damping of the rotation of the flange plate 500. When the flange plate 500 rotates to a certain angle, the side surface of the recess 510 is in contact with the side surface of the boss 310. The flange plate 500 continues to rotate, and the flange plate 500 drives the damping washer 300 to produce relative torsion with the driving disc 100, that is, an additional damping torque is generated when the driving disc 100 and the driven disc 700 are relatively twisted, so as to realize the step change of damping, that is, the size of the damping is adjusted according to the working state of the engine, and the vibration amplitude of the automobile engine in the resonance working condition such as starting or torque mutation is further attenuated, and the smoothness of the automobile is further improved, and the service life of each part in the automobile transmission system is prolonged.

[0042] With reference to Figure 5 , the relative torsion angle of the driving disc 100 and the driven disc 700 is set as θ, that is, the torsion angle of the flange plate 500 is θ. When the relative torsion angle of the driving disc 100 and the driven disc 700 is θ≤J1, that is, the rotating distance of this section when the flange plate 500 does not contact the damping spring 120, the flywheel damping F is equal to the frictional damping F1 between the cover plate 600 and the damping ring 800. When the relative torsion angle of the driving disc 100 and the driven disc 700 is J1<θ≤J3, that is, the flange plate 500 rotates through J1, but the circumferential end wall of the recess 510 does not touch the boss 310 in this rotating distance, the flywheel damping F1<F<F1+F2. Wherein, F2 refers to the frictional damping between the damping washer 300 and the driving disc 100. When the relative torsion angle of the driving disc 100 and the driven disc 700 is θ>J3, that is, the flange plate 500 rotates through J1, and the circumferential end wall of the recess 510 touches the boss 310, and the flange plate 500 drives the damping washer 300 to continue to rotate in this rotating distance, the flywheel damping F=F1+F2. Wherein, J1 is the free clearance angle between the damping spring 120 and the boss of the driving disc 100, and J3 is the idling angle between the boss 310 and the recess 510, and J3 is greater than J1. J1 and J3 can be adjusted according to the actual fluctuation value of the engine speed of the vehicle.

[0043] In some embodiments, the pressing sheet 300a is annularly arranged between the damping washer 300 and the other end of the disc spring 400, and the pressing sheet 300a is coaxially arranged with the driving disc 100. The pressing sheet 300a is provided with a clamping block 320, and the pressing plate 200 is provided with a clamping groove 210. The clamping block 320 is clamped into the clamping groove 210. The other end of the disc spring 400 is pressed against the damping washer 300 through the pressing sheet 300a. The pressing sheet 300a is arranged to play a pressing role and can provide damping friction for the damping washer 300. Of course, the pressing sheet 300a can also disperse the pressure of the other end of the disc spring 400 on the damping washer 300, so that the pressure of the other end of the disc spring 400 on the damping washer 300 is more uniform.

[0044] In some embodiments, the pressing plate 200 is provided with a flange 220, one end of the disc spring 400 abuts against the flange 220, and the other end of the disc spring 400 abuts against the pressing sheet 300a. The flange 220 is arranged to limit the deformation degree of the disc spring 400. The axial height of the flange reflects the deformation degree of the disc spring 400. However, the axial distance between the flange 220 and the pressing sheet 300a is less than the axial height of the disc spring 400 in a free state. Therefore, the disc spring 400 can be deformed between the flange 220 and the pressing sheet 300a, so as to generate an elastic pressure to press the pressing sheet 300a. The disc spring 400 is arranged to play a dynamic pressing role, that is, to keep the pressing sheet 300a tightly attached to the damping washer 300.

[0045] In some embodiments, the pressing plate 200 is annularly arranged and coaxially arranged with the driving disc 100. The annularly arranged pressing plate 200 is convenient to install and use. It can be understood that the pressing plate 200 can be a plurality of single pressing plates 200 distributed around the circumference of the driving disc 100, and the plurality of single pressing plates 200 are distributed around a circumference having the same axis as the driving disc 100.

[0046] In some embodiments, the bottom plate 100a is connected to the driving disc 100 and coaxially arranged with the driving disc 100. One end of the connecting ring 100b is sleeved on the bottom plate 100a, and the other end of the connecting ring 100b is rotatably connected to the flange plate 500. The bottom plate 100a and the connecting ring 100b are arranged to facilitate the installation of the flange plate 500.

[0047] In some embodiments, the spring installation groove 110 is provided with a plurality of spring installation grooves 110, and the push block 520 is arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the spring installation groove 110, so as to accommodate a plurality of damping springs 120.

[0048] In some embodiments, the driven disk 700 includes a connecting portion 710 and an extension portion 720. The extension portion 720 is fixedly connected to the connecting portion 710. The connecting portion 710 is fixedly connected to the flange 500. The connecting portion 710, the extension portion 720 and the driving disk 100 are coaxially arranged. The connecting portion 710 and the extension portion 720 facilitate the manufacture and installation of the driven disk 700.

[0049] In some embodiments, the connecting part 710 is provided with an external connecting hole 711, and a toothed anti-slip structure 712 is provided in the external connecting hole 711. The external connecting hole 711 facilitates the installation of the output shaft, and the toothed anti-slip structure 712 can prevent the output shaft from rotating in the external connecting hole 711.

[0050] In some embodiments, an external gear hub 100c is also included, which is sleeved on the drive disc 100 and is used to connect the starter motor.

[0051] A method for using a two-mass flywheel with step-damping characteristics includes the following steps:

[0052] To obtain the first frictional damping, the driving disc 100 is rotated, which drives the cover plate 600 to rotate synchronously. The cover plate 600 drives the flange 500 to rotate through the damping ring 800 and the leaf spring 900. The flange 500 is integrated with the driven disc 700, so the driven disc 700 will eventually rotate synchronously with the driving disc 100. When the torque is too large and exceeds the frictional force of the damping ring 800 on the cover plate 600, relative rotation will occur between the driving disc 100 and the driven disc 700. The friction between the damping ring 800 and the cover plate 600 forms the first frictional damping. The first frictional damping can consume vibration energy. The first frictional damping is related to the pressure provided by the leaf spring 900.

[0053] To obtain the second frictional damping, the flange 500 continues to rotate. The boss 310 on the damping washer 300 slides in the groove 510 of the flange 500 until it contacts the circumferential end of the groove 510. At this time, since the flange 500 continues to rotate, the damping washer 300 will be pushed to rotate by the flange 500. The friction between the damping washer 300 and the driving disc 100 forms the second frictional damping. The first frictional damping has a higher priority than the second frictional damping. Because the disc spring 400 is located between the damping washer 300 and the pressure plate 200, the second frictional damping is related to the pressure provided by the disc spring 400.

[0054] Vibration reduction is achieved by adjusting the damping magnitude according to the working state of the active disc 100. When the angular acceleration of the active disc 100 is less than the preset value, the first friction damping is used to reduce vibration. When the angular acceleration of the active disc 100 is greater than or equal to the preset value, the second friction damping is activated. Vibration reduction is achieved by the cooperation of the first and second friction damping.

[0055] During the operation of the automobile, the engine drives the driving disc 100 to rotate, and the driving disc 100 drives the driven disc 700 to rotate. Since the pressing plate 200 is fixedly connected with the driving disc 100, and pressure exists between the disc spring 400 and the damping washer 300, the pressing plate 200, the disc spring 400 and the damping washer 300 will rotate together with the driving disc 100. When the driving disc 100 and the driven disc 700 are relatively twisted, the flange plate 500 is also twisted with the driving disc 100. Since the flange plate 500 and the driven disc 700 are fixedly connected, similarly, the damping ring 800 pressed by the lamella spring 900 will rotate on the cover plate 600, forming the basic frictional damping of the rotation of the flange plate 500. When the flange plate 500 rotates to a certain angle, the side surface of the recess 510 is in contact with the side surface of the boss 310. The flange plate 500 continues to rotate, and the flange plate 500 drives the damping washer 300 to be relatively twisted with the driving disc 100, that is, an additional damping torque is generated when the driving disc 100 and the driven disc 700 are relatively twisted, so as to realize the step change of the damping, that is, the size of the damping is adjusted according to the working state of the engine, and the vibration amplitude of the automobile engine in the resonance working condition such as starting or torque mutation is further attenuated, and the smoothness of the automobile is further improved, and the service life of each part in the automobile transmission system is prolonged.

[0056] With reference to Figure 2 and Figure 4 Further comprising a protection shell 121, which is arranged in the driving disc 100 and is arranged on the outer side wall of the spring mounting groove 110, and is used for supporting or protecting the damping spring 120.

[0057] The above has made a detailed description of the embodiments of the present application in combination with the drawings, but the present application is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge range possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the purpose of the present application.
