Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of clutches, in particular to a double-power copper-based plate material clutch. Background Art

[0002] The existing push-type diaphragm spring cover assembly only provides compression force support during the transmission of engine torque to ensure the function of transmitting torque. The driven plate assembly transmits the engine torque to the transmission system. The cover assembly does not transmit the engine torque during the synchronous rotation with the flywheel, thereby causing mechanical energy loss.

[0003] Since the ordinary dry friction clutch converts the engine torque into friction torque and transmits it to the gearbox only through the driven plate assembly, the power output source depends only on the friction torque transmitted by the driven plate assembly. Friction torque = friction force x friction torque, friction force = positive clamping force x friction coefficient, so friction torque = positive clamping force x friction coefficient x friction torque. The cover assembly provides the positive clamping force required for the friction torque during operation. The friction coefficient is an inherent physical property of the friction material. The friction torque is related to the area of ​​the friction plate of the driven plate assembly. Therefore, the cover assembly has a single role in operation. The engine torque is only transmitted partially by the driven plate assembly. Part of the torque output by the engine needs to drive the synchronous rotation of the cover assembly and the flywheel, and this part of the torque is lost. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a dual-power copper-based plate material clutch, which aims to solve the technical problems of the prior art that the structure is relatively simple and the product failure rate is high.

[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is: a dual-power copper-based plate material clutch, including a pressure plate A, a diaphragm spring, a cover, a copper-based friction material torsion damper A, a pressure plate B, a copper-based friction material torsion damper B, a supporting ring, a supporting rivet, a positioning rivet, and a transmission plate; the diaphragm spring and the cover are sequentially installed at the front end of the pressure plate A; the pressure plate B is arranged at the rear end of the pressure plate A; the copper-based friction material torsion damper A is installed between the pressure plate B and the pressure plate A; the copper-based friction material torsion damper B is installed at the rear end of the pressure plate B.

[0006] Preferably, 1. When two copper-based friction material torsional vibration dampers A and copper-based friction material torsional vibration dampers A work simultaneously, the friction torque exerted on the middle pressure plate B and the first copper substrate and the second copper substrate on both sides is first transmitted to the driven plate body and the damping plate, and then transmitted to the disc hub through several primary damper springs and secondary damper springs. Due to the buffering effect of the damper springs, the impact on the transmission system is greatly reduced.

[0007] The torsional vibration in the transmission system will cause the driven disc hub to swing back and forth relative to the driven disc body and the damper disc, and the energy of the torsional vibration will be consumed by the friction of the damping plate sandwiched between them, so that the torsional vibration will decay rapidly and the alternating stress on the transmission system will be reduced.

[0008] 2. In order to more effectively avoid transmission system resonance and reduce transmission system noise, some automobile clutch driven plates use two or more groups of shock absorber springs with different stiffness, and make the window lengths of the springs different in size, so as to obtain variable stiffness characteristics by making the springs act successively. The patent of the present invention uses a two-stage shock absorbing device.

[0009] The primary damper spring is a pre-damping device with a small angular stiffness. It is mainly used to reduce the impact and noise between the constantly meshing gears in the transmission caused by the unstable total engine speed. In addition, when the transmission system works under a small torque load (including deceleration and gliding), it can also reduce the torsional vibration and noise of the gears in the transmission and the main reducer and other parts in the system.

[0010] The spring stiffness of the secondary shock absorber is relatively large. It will only work when the driven disc hub and the driven disc body rotate 5° in the forward direction (the engine drives the transmission system) or 2.5 in the reverse direction (the transmission system drives the engine). It can reduce the torsional stiffness of the joint between the engine crankshaft and the transmission system, tune the torsional natural frequency of the transmission system, reduce the resonance stress of the transmission system, and improve the softness of the clutch engagement.

[0011] Preferably, the diaphragm spring is positioned on the upper side of the front end of the pressure plate A through a support ring and a support rivet.

[0012] Preferably, a positioning rivet and a transmission plate are installed on the lower side of the front end of the pressure plate A.

[0013] Preferably, the copper-based friction material torsional vibration damper A has the same structure as the copper-based friction material torsional vibration damper B; the copper-based friction material torsional vibration damper A comprises a first copper substrate, a second copper substrate, a transmission plate, a driven plate, a friction washer, a friction plate, a stop pin, a disc hub, a primary damper spring, a secondary damper spring, a butterfly spring and a damping plate; a transmission plate is provided at the front end of the first copper substrate and the two are connected by rivets; the second copper substrate is riveted to the front end of the first copper substrate.

[0014] Preferably, the rear end of the second copper substrate is engaged and connected with the driven disk; a friction washer and a friction plate are provided between the driven disk and the second copper substrate; a stop pin is installed on the inner side of the rivet hole of the driven disk; the number of stop pins is four; a disk hub is installed on the front end of the driven disk mounting position; a primary shock absorber spring is installed on the inner side of the disk hub; the number of primary shock absorber springs is four groups.

[0015] Preferably, a secondary shock absorber spring is installed at the window position of the driven disc; a friction washer and a butterfly spring are installed at the disc hub step; and the position of the stop pin matches the position of the shock absorber disc after installation.

[0016] Beneficial effects of the utility model:

[0017] The utility model 1. reduces the torsional rigidity of the joint part between the engine crankshaft and the transmission system, thereby reducing the torsional vibration natural frequency of the transmission system;

[0018] Increase the torsional damping of the transmission system, suppress the amplitude corresponding to the torsional resonance, and attenuate the transient torsional vibration caused by impact.

[0019] 3. Control the torsional vibration of the clutch and transmission shaft system when the total speed of the power transmission assembly is controlled, and eliminate the transmission idling noise and the torsional vibration and noise of the main reducer and transmission.

[0020] 4. Alleviate the torsional impact load of the transmission system under unstable working conditions and improve the engagement smoothness of the clutch. The torsional vibration damper is an important component in the automobile clutch, mainly composed of elastic elements and damping elements, among which the spring element is used to reduce the torsional stiffness of the first end of the transmission system, thereby reducing the natural frequency of a certain stage of the transmission system torsional system, changing the natural vibration mode of the system so that it can avoid the excitation caused by the main harmonic excitation of the engine torque; the damping element is used to effectively dissipate the vibration energy.
