What is Clutch?

The most important feature that distinguishes cars with manual transmission from cars with automatic transmission is the clutch system. The clutch transmits the thrust from the engine to the wheels in manual transmission vehicles. The most important factor affecting the reason for choosing a vehicle when purchasing a vehicle is the presence of the clutch. Because this system ensures efficient use of the engine's thrust. At the same time, when the vehicle reaches a certain rpm level while driving, gear changes can be made thanks to this system.

The clutch ensures smooth movement of the vehicle in cars with manual transmission. Therefore, the quality of the parts used is very important.

What are the Components of the Clutch System?

The clutch system consists of 4 different parts. These parts are;

• Flywheel connected to the engine
• Clutch pressure
• Clutch lining
• Bearing

How is the Working Principle of the Clutch System?

It uses the friction force principle. It is also a gear system.

When the car is started, the pressure and pad are activated. There is a ball between the pressure and the lining. When the clutch is pressed, the ball exerts pressure on the pressure and thus the pad is wasted. The gear lever is moved when the pad is released. In this way, gear changes are possible in vehicles.

Duties of the Clutch

The clutch has various functions in the vehicle. These tasks are;

• In some cases, disconnecting the engine from the powertrain
• Interrupting the transmission of motion to the gearbox while shifting while the vehicle is running.
• To gradually transmit the movement of the engine to the wheels while starting the vehicle.
• To ensure that the vehicle moves smoothly and smoothly.
