SI24025A - Assembly of centrifugal clutch for motor vehicles with variable transmission - Google Patents

Abstract

The centrifugal coupling for variable-displacement motor vehicles allows for a smaller inertia of the existing assemblies. Due to the lower moment of inertia of the whole assembly, less energy is used to accelerate and degrade the entire assembly. The assembly consists of a centrifugal clutch driven by the drive shaft and consists of a supporting plate (2) and two or more jaws with claddings (3). The centrifugal clutch transfers the torque from the drive to the driven shaft via the clutch basket (1) by means of friction. With the help of this assembly, we have greater efficiency in accelerating and braking the motor vehicle, and at the same time also reducing the gyroscope effect on the motor vehicle when changing the turns.

Centrifugal Clutch for Variable Transmission Motor Vehicles

The subject of the invention

The subject of the invention is a centrifugal clutch assembly for variable-speed motor vehicles, which is engaged by centrifugal rotational force.

A simple solution due to the lower inertia momentum, it saves energy losses in acceleration and deceleration. The invention belongs to class F16D 43/14.

A technical problem

A technical problem solved by the invention is how to design a centrifugal clutch assembly for variable-speed motor vehicles that will have a lower moment of inertia and thus allow for less kinetic energy loss, since the centrifugal clutch assembly mimics the function of a centrifugal flywheel. Due to the lower circular inertia, the centrifugal clutch assembly will help accelerate and decelerate faster, as a result, the motor vehicle will use less energy to accelerate and less energy to brake. These facts, however, make it possible to:

- that the engine unit will use less fuel at the same power

- the braking system will be less stressed and thus less wearable

- reduced tire utilization.

Known state

There are some known implementations of similar solutions in the field of centrifugal couplings on the market. Solutions listed in W02010 / 048990, W02008 / 085349. W02007 / 010688, WO 00/39476, W0 02/21008, WO 99/47829 similarly solve problems of mechanical operation of centrifugal couplings, but these do not help to reduce the inertia moment of the coupling. Because of this, our solution is better because it reduces losses in the acceleration and deceleration of a variable-speed motorcycle.

The solution to a technical problem

A centrifugal clutch assembly for motor vehicles according to the invention that solves a technical problem consists of a clutch basket 1 made of metal or composite material with an inside diameter of less than 93mm and attached to a driven shaft. The clutch support plate 2 is made of metal or composite material and is fixed to the drive shaft, with two or more calipers with liners 3 made of metal or composite material. The clamping jaws 3 are attached to the clutch support plate 2 and with two or more tensile springs 4, thus connecting the clutch support plate 2 to the clamping jaws 3.

The essential description of the invention will be explained in more detail below with the description and the accompanying drawings, showing:

The clutch basket 1 is attached to the driven shaft and the clutch support plate 2 to the drive shaft. Clutch support plate 2 fits two or more calipers with liners 3, which are tensioned by two or V2H tensile springs 4 with clutch support plate 2. All of these components are dimensionally smaller than existing clutches and this allows the moment of inertia of the assembly smaller.

It is understood that a person skilled in the art can, on the basis of knowledge of the present invention or the description and drawings, modify and adapt it in a number of ways without circumventing the essence of the invention as defined in the patent claims.
