Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a clutch with multiple laminated sheets, especially a wet dual clutch assembly. Background Art
[0002] At present, the existing dry clutch includes a clutch cover assembly and a clutch driven disc assembly. A dry friction plate is provided on the clutch driven disc assembly. During actual operation, friction occurs between the friction plate and the clutch cover assembly. Especially when used in vehicles with extremely harsh working conditions or when the friction plate and the cover assembly are in a semi - engaged state for a long time, the friction plate and the cover assembly are in a friction state for a long time. During the friction process, a high temperature above 350°C will be generated instantaneously. At present, the temperature critical value of the commonly used dry friction plate is about 350°C. Therefore, it is very easy to burn the plate. In addition, the friction between the friction plate and the clutch cover assembly at high temperature will cause the wear of the friction plate to accelerate. Therefore, when the clutch with the existing structure is used in vehicles with extremely harsh working conditions or when the friction plate and the cover assembly are in a semi - engaged state for a long time, once it is ablated, the clutch must be scrapped and replaced. Frequent replacement of the clutch not only greatly reduces the working efficiency of the vehicle, but also increases the use cost of the vehicle.
[0003] Especially for the manual and automatic transmissions of mine wide - body trucks, engineering vehicles, and commercial trucks with a large load capacity, which have large horsepower, long continuous working hours, and harsh working environments, the scrap rate of their clutches is even higher.

[0068] External teeth are provided at the outer edge of the steel sheet 3 of the second oil-resistant friction part combination, and the steel sheet 3 realizes the connection with the second clutch outer ring 4 through its external teeth. During the rotation of the first clutch outer ring 4, the steel sheet 3 can be driven to rotate, and at the same time, the steel sheet 3 can also axially slide along the second clutch outer ring 4.

[0070] A plurality of second clutch circulating oil conduits 44 are arranged in the second sealing chamber. The second clutch circulating oil conduits 44 are fixedly connected to the second clutch circulating oil fixed disk 32 through nuts 45. The second clutch circulating oil fixed disk 32 is fixedly connected to the intermediate fixed disk 7 through fourth hexagon socket head cap screws 33.

After the circulating oil flows into the second clutch circulating oil conduit 44, it flows to the second oil-resistant friction member assembly through the oil outlet groove on the conduit, playing a cooling role for the working second oil-resistant friction member assembly.
[0071] A second deep groove ball bearing 38 is arranged between the second clutch flywheel disk 1 and the second disk hub 36. The inner ring of the second deep groove ball bearing 38 is fixedly connected to the second disk hub 36, and the outer ring of the second deep groove ball bearing 38 is fixedly connected to the second clutch flywheel disk 1 through a sixth hexagon socket head cap screw 40.

[0072] During the operation of the engine, the second clutch flywheel disk 1, the intermediate fixed disk 7 and the first clutch flywheel disk 15 are driven to rotate. During the rotation of the intermediate fixed disk 7, its torque is transmitted to the first clutch pressure plate 11 and the second clutch pressure plate 5 through the transmission plate 31.
[0073] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, transmission plates 31 are arranged between the intermediate fixed disk 7 and the first clutch pressure plate 11, and between the intermediate fixed disk 7 and the second clutch pressure plate 5. One end of the transmission plate 31 between the intermediate fixed disk 7 and the first clutch pressure plate 11 is connected to the intermediate fixed disk 7 through a third hexagon socket head cap screw 28, and the other end is connected to the first clutch pressure plate 11 through a tenth hexagon socket head cap screw 58.

During the rotation of the intermediate fixed disk 7, the torque is transmitted to the first clutch pressure plate 11 through the transmission plate 31, driving the first clutch pressure plate 11 to rotate accordingly.
[0074] The driving plate between the intermediate fixing plate 7 and the second clutch pressure plate 5 has the same connection relationship as the driving plate between the intermediate fixing plate 7 and the first clutch pressure plate 11, so it will not be elaborated here.
[0075] As Figure 3 shown, at the hole wall of the first clutch flywheel 15, there are a first clutch hydraulic oil inlet / outlet hole 47, a second clutch hydraulic oil inlet / outlet hole 46, and a circulating oil inlet hole 49. Both the first clutch flywheel 15 and the intermediate fixing plate 7 are provided with hydraulic oil channels. The hydraulic oil enters the hydraulic oil channel in the first clutch flywheel 15 through the first clutch hydraulic oil inlet / outlet hole 47, and flows along the hydraulic oil channel in the intermediate fixing plate 7 to the first cylinder piston 10, which plays a role in pushing the first cylinder piston 10. The first cylinder piston 10 exerts an extrusion effect on the first oil-resistant friction part combination, making the first clutch in the engaged state. When the first clutch is in the disengaged state, under the reset action of the separation spring 26 and the cylinder return spring 27, the first cylinder piston 10 is reset. At this time, the hydraulic oil flows out along the hydraulic oil channel in the intermediate fixing plate 7, the hydraulic oil channel in the first clutch flywheel 15, and the first clutch hydraulic oil inlet / outlet hole 47 respectively.
[0076] The second clutch hydraulic oil inlet / outlet hole 46 is communicated with the hydraulic oil channel in the first clutch flywheel 15, and the hydraulic oil channels are communicated with each other. The hydraulic oil channel in the intermediate fixing plate 7 is communicated with the second groove where the second cylinder piston 6 is placed. Through the flow of the hydraulic oil in the second clutch hydraulic oil inlet / outlet hole 46, the hydraulic oil channel in the first clutch flywheel 15, and the hydraulic oil channel in the intermediate fixing plate 7, the separation and engagement of the second clutch are realized. The separation and engagement process is the same as the working process of the first clutch above, so it will not be elaborated here.
[0077] The first clutch flywheel 15 and the intermediate fixing plate 7 are also provided with circulating oil channels, and the circulating oil channels are communicated with each other. The circulating oil channel in the first clutch flywheel 15 is communicated with the circulating oil inlet hole 49 on the first clutch flywheel 15. The circulating oil channel in the intermediate fixing plate 7 is communicated with the second clutch circulating oil conduit 44, and a second throttle plug 53 is provided at the communication place to control the flow rate of the circulating oil. The circulating oil channel in the first clutch flywheel 15 is communicated with the first circulating oil inflow chamber, and a first throttle plug 52 is provided at the communication place. Through the first throttle plug 52, a certain blocking effect is exerted on the flow of the circulating oil. A plug 50 is provided in the circulating oil inlet hole 49.
[0078] The circulating oil sequentially passes through the circulating oil inlet hole 49, the circulating oil passage in the first clutch flywheel disc 15, and the circulating oil passage in the intermediate fixed disc 7, enters the first sealing chamber of the first clutch and the second sealing chamber of the second clutch, and enters the first oil-resistant friction part combination and the second oil-resistant friction part combination, so as to form an oil friction between the paper base sheet 2 and the steel sheet 3, and at the same time, the temperature generated by the friction between the paper base sheet 2 and the steel sheet 3 can be reduced.
[0079] In this embodiment, taking the first clutch as an example, its specific working process is introduced. When the first clutch is in the engaged state, the hydraulic oil with oil pressure flows into the first oil cylinder piston 10 through the first clutch hydraulic oil inlet and outlet hole 47. Under the pressure of the hydraulic oil, the first oil cylinder piston 10 presses the first clutch pressure plate 11 towards the first clutch flywheel disc. The torque of the engine is transmitted to the first oil-resistant friction part combination through the first clutch flywheel disc 15 and the first clutch pressure plate 11, and is transmitted to the first transmission power input shaft through the first disc hub. During the process of being pressed against each other, the oil cylinder return spring 27 between the first clutch pressure plate 11 and the first clutch outer ring 12, and the separation spring 26 located between adjacent steel sheets are pressed, and a thrust is generated inside the spring.
[0080] When the first clutch is in the separated state, the clutch pedal is depressed, and the oil pressure of the hydraulic oil supplied to the first oil cylinder piston 10 is removed. The oil cylinder return spring 27 and the separation spring 26 are reset. Under the return force of the oil cylinder return spring 27 and the separation spring 26, the first oil cylinder piston 10 moves in the reverse direction away from the first clutch flywheel disc, and a gap is generated between the first clutch pressure plate 11, the first oil-resistant friction part combination and the first clutch flywheel disc 15. The frictional torque acting on the first oil-resistant friction part combination disappears, and the resistance transmission is interrupted.

[0089] Example 2
[0090] Different from Example 1, Figure 4 As shown, the wet dual clutch assembly in this embodiment further includes a shield 60, which is located outside the first clutch flywheel disc 15, the first clutch outer ring 12, the middle fixed disc 7, and the second clutch outer ring 4. Figure 4 As shown, the outer cylindrical end surface of the shield 60 is fixedly connected to the second clutch flywheel disc 1 through several eleventh hexagon socket bolts 65, the center of the shield 60 is fixedly connected to the bearing sleeve 16 through a third rivet 62, and a fifth O-ring 61 and a sixth O-ring 63 are provided at the connection between the shield 60 and the bearing sleeve 22.
[0091] The first clutch flywheel disc 15 , the first clutch outer ring 12 , the intermediate fixed disc 7 , and the second clutch outer ring 4 are arranged in a chamber formed by the protective cover 60 , the second clutch flywheel disc 1 , and the bearing sleeve 16 .
[0092] There is a gap between the outer circumferential wall of the first clutch outer ring 12, the intermediate fixed plate 7, the second clutch outer ring 4 and the inner side of the corresponding shield 60. A paddle is provided in the gap, and the paddle is tilted in the direction toward the first clutch flywheel. During the rotation of the entire clutch assembly, the circulating oil in the first oil-resistant friction component combination and the second oil-resistant friction component combination is continuously thrown into the gap between the first clutch outer ring, the second clutch outer ring and the shield, and flows along the paddle to one end close to the first clutch flywheel.
[0093] There is also a gap between the axial side of the first clutch flywheel disc 15 facing the shield and the corresponding axial side of the shield, and an oil guide wheel 59 is arranged in the gap. The position of the oil guide wheel 59 is always fixed and does not rotate with the first clutch flywheel disc. A third deep groove ball bearing 64 is arranged between the oil guide wheel 59 and the first clutch flywheel disc 15, and the concentricity and parallelism between the oil guide wheel 59 and the first clutch flywheel disc 15 are ensured by the third deep groove ball bearing 64.
[0094] The oil guide wheel 59 is provided with several oil guide blades arranged along the circumferential direction. The circulating oil collected by the paddles drips onto the guide wheel 59 and is discharged along the oil guide blades. After the discharged circulating oil is collected, it can be circulated again into the clutch assembly for cooling, thereby realizing the recycling of the circulating oil.
[0095] A paddle is also provided at the wall of the bearing sleeve hole near the outlet of the oil guide wheel, which helps to guide the circulating oil in the oil guide wheel. Therefore, in this embodiment, the bearing sleeve can not only drive the oil pump, but also play an oil guiding role.
[0096] The rest is the same as in Example 1.

Through the rigid connection between the flexible disc and the second clutch flywheel disc 1, when the flexible disc rotates, it drives the second clutch flywheel disc 1 to rotate.
[0099] Others are the same as Embodiment 2.
[0100] In the above Embodiment 1, the driving mode of the spline connection can also be replaced by the driving mode of the flexible disc.
