Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of friction plate technology, specifically to a friction plate mechanism for a power shift oil groove wet clutch. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, the demand for low fuel consumption in automobiles has been increasing. In automatic transmissions, to reduce power loss when the clutch is not engaged, it is also necessary to reduce the drag torque between the friction plates and steel plates. However, in order to improve shift response by improving power performance while simultaneously improving fuel efficiency, the following tendencies exist: the gap between the friction plates and steel plates is smaller than before; the drag torque generated by the oil film in the middle during idling is larger; and the heat dissipation performance of the friction plates is not high and still needs to be improved. To address these problems, the inventors have proposed a power shift oil groove wet clutch friction plate mechanism to solve these issues. Utility Model Content

Each friction component includes a first friction strip, a second friction strip, a third friction strip, a fourth friction strip, a fifth friction strip, and a sixth friction strip. The first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth friction strips are radially arranged on the annular core plate. The second, third, and sixth friction strips are in contact with the first and fourth friction strips. An annular groove is formed between the first and fifth friction strips. The inner side of the first friction strip is provided with a first oblique groove, the inner side of the second friction strip is provided with a second oblique groove, the inner side of the third friction strip is provided with a first triangular groove, the inner side of the fourth friction strip is provided with a second triangular groove, the inner side of the fifth friction strip is provided with a third oblique groove, and the inner side of the sixth friction strip is provided with a fourth oblique groove. The first oblique groove, the second oblique groove, the third oblique groove, the fourth oblique groove, the first triangular groove, the second triangular groove, and the annular groove are arranged in a way that can reduce the shear resistance of the lubricating oil between the annular friction strips, thus making it easier to reduce the drag torque.

This can improve the wear resistance and stability of the annular core plate.
[0008] Preferably, the dimensions of the first, second, third, and fourth oblique grooves range from 1 to 2.0 mm, and the dimensions of the first, second, third, fourth, and first straight grooves range from 0.5 to 2.0 mm. By controlling the dimensions of the first, second, third, and fourth oblique grooves, the shear resistance of the lubricating oil between the annular friction plates can be reduced. By controlling the dimensions of the first, second, third, and fourth oblique grooves, the contact area with the friction plates can be increased to better remove heat from the surface of the friction plates. By controlling the dimensions of the first straight groove, the flow of lubricating oil can be ensured to remain unaffected.
[0009] Preferably, the included angle of the inner side of the third friction strip is A, and the angle of A is 20° to 60°. The included angle of the inner side of the fourth friction strip is B, and the angle of B is 40° to 80°. By controlling the range of angles, it is convenient to ensure the control of the residence time of the lubricating oil between the friction discs.
