When the hydraulic oil is withdrawn, the first telescopic spring 205 provides a thrust to the piston plate 204 to push the piston plate 204 back to its original position.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4, a protection mechanism 3 is provided at one end of the piston rod 203. The protection mechanism 3 includes a linkage sleeve 301 slidably connected to the piston rod 203. A pressure sensor 311 is fixedly connected inside the linkage sleeve 301. A circumferentially arranged fixing groove 306 is formed inside the linkage sleeve 301. A linkage slider 308 is slidably connected inside the fixing groove 306. The linkage slider 308 is fixed through the fixing groove 306. Through the linkage slider 308, the linkage sleeve 301 is connected to the piston rod 203, enabling the piston rod 203 to control the synchronous operation of the linkage sleeve 301. Through the pressure sensor 311, when the linkage sleeve 301 is separated from the piston rod 203, the pressure sensor 311 is squeezed by the piston rod 203, causing the pressure sensor 311 to send out an alarm message.

[0033] A connection card slot 309 is formed on the surface of the piston rod 203, and the linkage slider 308 is clamped with the connection card slot 309. A third telescopic spring 307 is fixedly connected to the surface of the linkage slider 308, and one end of the third telescopic spring 307 is fixedly connected to the fixing groove 306. Through the third telescopic spring 307, a thrust is provided to the linkage slider 308, making the clamping of the linkage slider 308 with the connection card slot 309 more stable and firm.

[0034] A fixing snap ring 310 is fixedly connected to the surface of the fixing groove 306, and the fixing snap ring 310 is clamped with the linkage slider 308. Through the fixing snap ring 310, a certain resistance is provided to the linkage slider 308. When the linkage sleeve 301 is stuck, the piston rod 203 slides without resistance inside the linkage sleeve 301, avoiding the expansion of the damage degree of the clutch when the clutch fails.

[0035] A connecting rod 302 is fixedly connected to the surface of the linkage sleeve 301. A protective cover 303 is sleeved on the surface of the connecting rod 302.

[0037] When the present utility model is in use: The pump body 1 is fixed to the vehicle through the connection buckle 207. The linkage sleeve 301 is connected to the clutch paddle shifter through the connecting rod 302. When the clutch paddle shifter fails, the linkage sleeve 301 is stuck. When the piston rod 203 moves forward, the piston rod 203 presses the linkage slider 308, causing the linkage slider 308 to move outward and being pressed into the fixing groove 306. The linkage slider 308 is clamped by the fixing snap ring 310. The piston rod 203 continues to move, and the pressure sensor 311 is pressed by the piston rod 203. The pressure sensor 311 sends out an alarm message to prompt the driver that the clutch has failed. And through the fixing snap ring 310, the piston rod 203 slides without resistance inside the linkage sleeve 301. Through the second telescopic spring 305, the linkage sleeve 301 is pulled back to its original position. Through the third telescopic spring 307, a pushing force is provided to the linkage slider 308, and the linkage slider 308 is clamped with the connecting card slot 309, reconnecting the linkage sleeve 301 to the piston rod 203. Through the above device, when the clutch fails, the linkage is released to avoid expanding the damage of the clutch and improve the stability of the clutch operation.
