Description

Technical Field

[0001] Embodiments of this disclosure relate to the field of clutch pressure plate technology, and more specifically, to a lightweight clutch pressure plate. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of mechanical transmission, the clutch pressure plate, as a key component of the clutch, plays a vital role in the transmission and disconnection of power. As the core component connecting the engine and the gearbox, the clutch's main function is to achieve the smooth engagement and disengagement of engine power and transmission system during vehicle starting, gear shifting, and other operations, ensuring the normal operation of the vehicle and the smoothness of driving.

[0003] Traditional clutch pressure plates have revealed many problems in practical applications. On the one hand, in order to make clutch operation easier, various clutch assist devices were often used in the past. However, these devices not only make the overall structure more complicated and increase manufacturing and maintenance costs, but also make it more difficult to retrofit existing models. More importantly, when operating the clutch, the pressure applied by the release bearing to the pressure plate is transmitted to the crankshaft bearing through the flywheel, causing the crankshaft bearing to bear a large axial load. This greatly shortens the service life of the crankshaft bearing and related components. Frequent maintenance and replacement of parts also increases the cost of use and time.

[0004] On the other hand, traditional pressure plates generally have the problem of being too heavy. For example, some existing pressure plates weigh more than 25kg. This not only leads to high material costs, but also causes many inconveniences for workers during installation and transportation, increasing labor intensity and installation difficulty. At the same time, when the clutch is working, the pressure plate and friction plate frequently engage and disengage, generating a lot of heat. However, the heat dissipation effect of traditional clutch pressure plates is not good, and heat is easy to accumulate on the inside, which leads to uneven heat conduction of the pressure plate and causes problems such as warping and deformation. This not only reduces the performance of the clutch pressure plate, but also generates noise due to deformation, affecting the normal operation and service life of the equipment.

[0005] In summary, developing a lightweight clutch pressure plate that can overcome the aforementioned drawbacks has become an urgent problem to be solved in this field. The aim is to improve the ease of clutch operation from the source, simplify the structure, reduce the difficulty of modifying existing models, reduce the axial load on the crankshaft bearing, reduce the weight of the pressure plate itself, and improve heat dissipation performance, so as to meet the requirements of modern mechanical transmission systems for high efficiency, reliability, durability and ease of maintenance. Utility Model Content

[0006] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, the embodiments of this disclosure provide a lightweight clutch pressure plate, which solves many problems exposed by traditional clutch pressure plates in practical applications. In order to make clutch operation easier, various clutch assist devices are often used in the past. However, these devices not only make the overall structure more complicated and increase manufacturing and maintenance costs, but also make it more difficult to retrofit existing models. More importantly, when operating the clutch, the pressure applied by the release bearing to the pressure plate is transmitted to the crankshaft bearing through the flywheel, causing the crankshaft bearing to bear a large axial load.

[0036] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a portable clutch pressure plate of this disclosure is illustrated, comprising:

[0037] The disc body 1 has a disc cover 2 fastened to its upper end;

[0038] A drive cleaning component 3 is disposed inside the disk body 1;

[0039] Limiting installation component 4, which is disposed inside the disk body 1;

[0040] The drive cleaning component 3 includes an output motor 3-1, which is disposed on the inner upper surface of the disc body 1. The output end of the output motor 3-1 is provided with a drive wheel 3-2. The interior of the disc body 1 is provided with a drive ring 3-3. The lower end surface of the drive ring 3-3 is provided with a drive disk 3-4. The upper end surface of the drive disk 3-4 is provided with a drive rack 3-5, which meshes with the drive wheel 3-2. The lower end surface of the drive ring 3-3 is provided with a cleaning disk 3-6, and the lower end surface of the cleaning disk 3-6 is provided with a cleaning brush 3-7.

[0041] The limiting installation component 4 includes a placement ring 4-1, the placement ring 4-1 having a placement cavity 4-2 inside, a positioning disk 4-3 on the upper end face of the drive ring 3-3, the positioning disk 4-3 being embedded in the placement cavity 4-2, the lower end of the drive ring 3-3 extending out of the placement cavity 4-2, and a connecting ring 4-4 ​​on the lower end face of the drive ring 3-3, the connecting ring 4-4 ​​being fixedly connected to the drive ring 3-3.

[0042] In some examples, the output motor 3-1 is mounted on the inner top of the disk body 1 via a motor platform. First, the motor platform is placed in the predetermined position on the inner top of the disk body 1. Bolts are then used to securely tighten the motor platform to the disk body 1. When tightening the bolts, the specified torque value must be used to ensure the motor platform is firmly installed and to prevent loosening during the operation of the output motor 3-1. A drive wheel 3-2 is installed at the output end of the output motor 3-1. It is ensured that the drive wheel 3-2 is tightly connected to the output shaft of the output motor 3-1 without any loosening. After installation, the drive wheel 3-2 should correspond to the drive rack 3-5 inside the disk body 1 to ensure proper meshing. A drive ring 3-3 is installed inside the disk body 1. The lower end face of the drive ring 3-3 is fixedly connected to the drive disk 3-4. The upper end face of the drive disk 3-4 is equipped with the drive rack 3-5. The rack 3-5 should be accurately engaged with the drive wheel 3-2. When installing the drive ring 3-3, attention should be paid to its matching relationship with other internal components of the disc body 1 to ensure accurate installation. The lower end face of the drive ring 3-3 is also fixedly connected to the cleaning disc 3-6. The cleaning brush 3-7 is installed on the lower end face of the cleaning disc 3-6. When installing the cleaning brush 3-7, it is necessary to ensure that the cleaning brush 3-7 can make good contact with the surface of the component to be cleaned in order to achieve an effective cleaning effect. When the output motor 3-1 starts, the output shaft of the output motor 3-1 drives the drive wheel 3-2 to rotate. Since the drive wheel 3-2 is engaged with the drive rack 3-5, the rotation of the drive wheel 3-2 will drive the drive rack 3-5 to move, thereby causing the drive disc 3-4, the drive ring 3-3, and the connected cleaning disc 3-6 and cleaning brush 3-7 to perform a circular motion together to achieve the cleaning function of the relevant components.

[0043] The mounting ring 4-1 in the limiting installation assembly 4 is set in a suitable position inside the disc body 1. The mounting ring 4-1 has mounting cavities 4-2 on opposite sides inside. When installing the mounting ring 4-1, it is necessary to ensure that the mounting ring 4-1 is firmly connected to the disc body 1, and that the position of the mounting cavity 4-2 corresponds to the positioning plate 4-3 on the drive ring 3-3. The positioning plate 4-3 is set on the upper end face of the drive ring 3-3 and is embedded into the mounting cavity 4-2. The lower end of the drive ring 3-3 extends out of the mounting cavity 4-2. The lower end face of the drive ring 3-3 is set with a connecting ring 4-4. The connecting ring 4-4 ​​is fixedly connected to the drive ring 3-3. The connecting ring 4-4 ​​is used to connect other related components. When installing the connecting ring 4-4, it is necessary to ensure the connection strength between it and the drive ring 3-3.

[0044] like Figures 1-4 As shown in the figure, this embodiment proposes that the upper end of the disc body 1 is provided with an operation port 3-8, the operation port 3-8 is provided with a stepped groove 3-9, and the disc cover 2 is embedded in the interior of the stepped groove 3-9.

[0045] In some examples, the operating port 3-8 is used for maintenance and debugging inside the disk body 1, and the disk cover 2 can be installed through the stepped groove 3-9. The sealing buckle of the disk cover 2 is installed in the operating port 3-8 on the disk body 1 to make it more stable.

[0046] For example, such as Figure 4 As shown, the mounting cavity 4-2 is opened on opposite sides inside the mounting ring 4-1, and the positioning disk 4-3 and the driving ring 3-3 form a T-shaped structure. The mounting cavity 4-2 has a T-shaped cross-section.

[0047] In some examples, the positioning disk 4-3 and the drive ring 3-3 form a T-shaped cross-section, and the mounting cavity 4-2 also has a T-shaped cross-section. This structural design can effectively limit the drive ring 3-3 and prevent the drive ring 3-3 from moving axially or radially during operation.

[0048] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, a locking cavity 5 is provided on the inner sidewall surface of the stepped groove 3-9, and a locking opening 6 is opened on the upper end face of the disc body 1. The locking opening 6 is connected to the locking cavity 5, and a locking strip 7 is provided on the sidewall of the disc cover 2. The locking strip 7 is inserted into the locking opening 6.

[0049] In some examples, the upper end face of the disc body 1 has a locking port 6 that communicates with the locking cavity 5, and the side wall of the disc cover 2 is provided with a locking strip 7. After the disc cover 2 is embedded in the stepped groove 3-9, the locking strip 7 is inserted into the locking port 6 until the locking strip 7 is fully inserted into the locking cavity 5, so as to achieve reliable locking between the disc cover 2 and the disc body 1 and prevent the disc cover 2 from loosening during use.

[0050] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, the side wall of the disk body 1 has insertion teeth 8, which are composed of multiple insertion cavities. The multiple insertion cavities are evenly distributed around the side wall of the disk body 1.

[0051] In some examples, the side wall of the disk body 1 has insertion teeth 8, which are composed of multiple insertion cavities. These cavities are evenly distributed around the side wall of the disk body 1. In practical applications, the corresponding components are inserted into the insertion cavities as needed to achieve connection and cooperation with other components. The even distribution of the insertion cavities can ensure the stability and reliability of the connection. When inserting components, it is necessary to ensure the fitting accuracy between the components and the insertion cavities to avoid loosening or over-tightening.

[0052] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, a stepped block 9 is provided at the bottom of the disc cover 2. The stepped block 9 is embedded in the interior of the stepped groove 3-9. The disc cover 2 and the disc body 1 are sealed together by a sealing gasket.

[0053] In some examples, the bottom of the disc cover 2 is provided with a stepped block 9. During installation, the stepped block 9 is accurately embedded into the stepped groove 3-9 to ensure the accuracy of the disc cover 2's installation position. Since both the disc body 1 and the disc cover 2 are circular structures, the disc cover 2 must be fully embedded in the stepped groove 3-9 to achieve a good fit. At the same time, the disc cover 2 and the disc body 1 are sealed together by a sealing gasket. When installing the sealing gasket, it is necessary to ensure that the sealing gasket is intact and undamaged, and to place it evenly between the mating surfaces of the disc cover 2 and the disc body 1 to prevent dust, impurities, etc. from entering the interior of the disc body 1 and affecting the normal operation of the clutch pressure plate.

[0054] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, both the disc body 1 and the disc cover 2 are circular structures. The disc cover 2 is completely embedded in the stepped groove 3-9. The output motor 3-1 is mounted on the inner top of the disc body 1 via a motor platform. The motor platform on the output motor 3-1 is fixed to the disc body 1 by bolts.

[0055] When in use, insert the relevant components into the insertion cavity on the side wall of the disc body 1 according to the actual usage requirements. When inserting, ensure that the component is inserted in the correct direction and to the appropriate depth so that the component fits tightly with the insertion cavity and ensures the stability of the connection. Turn on the power to the output motor 3-1 and start the output motor 3-1. After the motor starts, the output shaft drives the drive wheel 3-2 to start rotating. The drive wheel 3-2 meshes with the drive rack 3-5, thereby driving the drive disc 3-4, drive ring 3-3, and the connected cleaning disc 3-6 and cleaning brush 3-7 to perform circular motion. At this time, the lightweight clutch pressure plate starts to work, and the cleaning brush 3-7 cleans the surface of the relevant components. At the same time, the entire device can perform corresponding clutch operations according to the connected external equipment. During operation, pay close attention to the operating status of the device, listen for any abnormal noise, and observe whether the operation of each component is smooth.

[0056] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this disclosure and are not intended to limit it. Although this disclosure has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this disclosure without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this disclosure, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this disclosure.
