  • @affilinet
    @affilinet 9 лет назад +12

    i dont understand how its possible that the engine transmits its power to the gearbox a 100% without any slip when a gear is engaged,or is there slip under hard acceleration?
    How much pressure is there between clutch disc and flywheel?
    does the clutch rotate at exactly the same speed as the flywheel/with the flywheel.... a 100% all the time when a gear is fully engaged,or is there slip if i quickly accelerate?

    • @gpburr
      @gpburr 9 лет назад +1

      I would like to know the answers to the exact same questions. curious mechanism. you would think there would be a more stable way of securing the two to ensure 100% power transmission with no slipping. although, the coefficient of friction is probably so massive, considering the tension, the material and the surface area, i would imagine that slippage would be very, very minimal

    • @tomsfruitstand6821
      @tomsfruitstand6821 9 лет назад

      There is a good bit of slipping at high rpm's i don't know if this has anything to do your question,but when i shift and their is a little bit of slip i just double clutch. This usually only happens at high rpms and with not the best clutches.

    • @xXJeReMiAhXx99
      @xXJeReMiAhXx99 9 лет назад +1

      the material that the clutch is made out of is mean't to be extremely hard to slip so that is a big factor right there, additionally the clutch is pressed against the flywheel with a couple hundred pounds of pressure and then racing or heavy duty vehicles can have multiple clutches, 2 or 3 which are already of much higher specification than the ones which would come in a very basic car.
      another thing is it has springs so it is not completely rigid, that means an abrupt force can be absorbed by the springs rather then causing the clutch to slip.
      even with all that said I'm still impressed that this clutch system works with virtually no slipping, it really is a huge amount of force.

    • @Texassince1836
      @Texassince1836 9 лет назад +4

      If your foot isn't touching the clutch pedal the flywheel and clutch are turning the same rpm.
      Otherwise you need a new clutch.
      When you are pushing the clutch there is slippage while the two synchronize speeds

    • @ruinergoon
      @ruinergoon 9 лет назад +4

      affilinet When there is slip, it is in a condition known as "kinetic friction," meaning the two surfaces are moving relative to one another. As you disengage the clutch in gear with the intent of moving forward, the engine torque and vehicle mass exert increasing force on each other until the driveshaft speed matches the engine and the clutch surfaces enter a state of "static friction," where they are not moving relative to the other. Breaking this state of static friction requires much more energy than it does to maintain. This is why higher power engines require heavier clutches.

  • @rudemood42
    @rudemood42 10 лет назад

    This is one great piece of information about the clutch. I recently had my pressure plate changed and this video has helped in understanding the principle of clutch. I have a hard time understanding it from a mechanic.

  • @Scruit
    @Scruit 10 лет назад +11

    Two small corrections...
    1) Pressure plate is bolted to flywheel - otherwise you could not change the friction plate, or remove access the flywheel-to-crankshaft bolts.
    2) The "ears" on the release bearing clip onto the release fork and do not rotate with the pressure plate. The front of the release bearing (where it meets with the diaphragm spring in the pressure plate) has the actual bearing.
    Otherwise great video.

    • @sixstanger00
      @sixstanger00 9 лет назад +1

      +kmmahamuni4 For the most part, yes. But only vehicles with manual transmissions use clutches. On automatic vehicles, the flywheel is replaced with a "flexplate," and the clutch assembly (pressure plate & disc) is replaced with a torque converter.
      On some high performance vehicles, a dual clutch disc (2 discs instead of 1)setup is used to increase "bite" or "clamp" when the pedal is released. This minimizes slippage and maximizes power getting to the wheels. The downside is of course, wheels that go from a dead stop to being on the receiving end of a lot of torque can break wheel studs and even axles.
      Apart from how the release bearing is actuated (cable type or hydraulic), nearly all automotive clutches use this design.
      As a matter fact, limited slip differentials work on the same principle - small clutch discs are used to create "drag" on the spinning axle, allowing the car to balance power distribution to both wheels.

    I have a 70 Chevelle- 4 speed, I've installed 2 clutches in it, the second this afternoon. I went with a “Center Force” this time because my motor exceeds the HP tolerances for stock. I know exactly how to assemble it, all the correct tolerances and torque specs for my application BUT.. I never clearly understood how applying MORE pressure to the middle released the pressure plate. (one might think it would just smash it together harder) Your video clearly showed the teeter/totter affect the springs create and now I get it!

    • @DenyDenDenzel
      @DenyDenDenzel 8 лет назад +18

      A car can move forward due to those parts, yes, and probably the most primitive vehicles or rotational systems would simply use that too. (See, Tamiya, a bunch of toys which only uses dynamos, gears, and wheels to move)
      But then we start getting problems. How do I stop it? Then we use a brake. But my engine stops working if I stop my car completely! So we use a flywheel to store the rotational energy. But what if I only wanted my wheels to stop taking power from the engine without stopping the engine (since stopping and starting the engine multiple times is just dangerous)? Then we use a clutch. I want to go faster or slower without putting too much stress or consuming too much fuel on my engine! Then we use multiple gear transmissions.
      Then more complicated problems arise, and more solutions come to play.

      it's basically just storing energy into a spring and then slowly releasing that energy, like a crossbow.

      +Nick Karatekid in a wet clutch, there's probably some sort of transmission oil or lubricant to keep things running smoothly.. on a dry clutch, well its dry.. to my understanding, wet clutches are most like used for everyday rides while the dry clutch fits more for racing.. i'm guessing that in a dry clutch, things(shaft and gears) will rotate more faster because of the absence of oil HOWEVER this will lead to higher temperatures so i'm guessing with a dry clutch, you will need more exotic materials like carbon ceramic or alloys that are high temperature resistant and not just the usual stainless steel

    Just thought I would mention that the vast majority of motorcycles use multiplate WET clutches. They are multiplate because this enables them to be smaller in diameter compared to a car clutch. They are called wet clutches because they run in the engine oil (bikes do not use separate gearbox oil - unless it's a 2-stroke engine).
    Some bikes DO feature dry clutches, certainly some Ducati models. I think maybe some Harleys do but never worked on them so just a hunch. Dry clutches on bikes can be very noisy, even when new.
    Good video though :-)

      Sai Santosh These are installed to damp chatter (for example when the car starts moving).

      waclosh New friction clutches are actually pretty cheap to replace if you can get some mates over to help you change it.

    I have the same opinion. This animation was very understandable for me. I finally get how is the functioning of the clutch.

  • @iscreamsu
    @iscreamsu 6 лет назад +1

    Great explanation, but pressure plates (in my experience) are not riveted to the flywheel, or you could not bolt the flywheel on the engine (or replace the clutch disc/pressure plate easily, especially with the engine and trans in the car. Maybe newer cars are riveted, but older and high performance cars are not (they are bolted)

    All this complex machinery made completely obsolete by electric cars...

    • @TheArabsolga
      @TheArabsolga 9 лет назад

      ryelor123 Doesn't matter. Charging is free, oil isn't. And let's not forget recent advances in batteries like "aluminum air" or graphene which will sooner or later make gas completely obsolete since these would have a much higher power storage capacity and would be able to charge within minutes (for aluminum air) and possibly seconds (graphene, although far away). Also, EV's are only going to get cheaper and charging is free while gas is only going to get pricier. EV's essentially run off the power of the sun, which is a relatively infinite supply, if solar panels are the ones charging them. Gas made from algae will rely heavily on the harvest of algae, while solar panels are (relatively) more reliable and constantly becoming more efficient. Sorry to say it but gas vehicles are going to be relics in the near future.

    • @TheArabsolga
      @TheArabsolga 9 лет назад

      Sean nolastfuqingname Thing is, it comes from built in solar on top of tesla stations, free for the consumers. Now elon musk still has to pay for property but his goal isn't exactly to make a profit but change the worlds transportation to EVs so he is willing to pay to create another incentive for switching over.

    • @TheArabsolga
      @TheArabsolga 9 лет назад

      ***** Why do i still have idiots misinterpreting what i'm saying?
      Let me be ABUNDANTLY clear:
      When you charge a tesla at a tesla supercharger, it is charged via solar panels on the roof of said supercharger. Later on at night, energy that is collected during the day will be stored for night time usage via industrial powerwall. SO, the energy that charges tesla's comes from SOLAR POWER MOUNTED ONTO THE ROOF OF THE CHARGING STATION. IN CONCLUSION, ITS ESSENTIALLY FREE ENERGY FOR THE CONSUMERS. Do u undursatnd now?

  • @Golden-ib7dk

    Silly Europeans. Instead of admiring the effort this man put into making this video, you are concerned about the ratio of manuals to automatics here in the states. Plenty of Americans drive stick. It's not hard to learn, but if it makes you feel superior go for it.

    @penguinmaster7 7 лет назад +2

    this is definitely going to help me in learning how to drive stick
    i always assumed there was a set of teeth that locked into the transmission gears, so i would panic trying to release it. now that i know it's friction-based, i'll have an easier time.

  • @strumpeteer
    @strumpeteer 10 лет назад +2

    Great video, especially the animated part on how the pressure disc becomes disengaged from the flywheel by pressing the release bearing against the diaphragm spring. You can't get anymore clearer than that.

    Near the beginning of this otherwise-excellent tutorial animation, it was stated that the majority of cars and motorcycles have dry clutches. The majority of motorcycles actually have wet multi-plate clutches and look very different to a car's clutch.
    Just thought that information might be useful to you.
