    Abstract: Provided is a clutch device configured so that different desired torque values can be set without influence between assist torque and slipper torque. A clutch device 100 includes a center clutch 105 holding clutch plates 104 arranged facing friction plates 103 to be rotatably driven by a drive shaft, and a pressure clutch 111. The center clutch 105 includes center-side assist cam surfaces 106a and center-side slipper cam surfaces 106b. The pressure clutch 111 includes pressure-side assist cam surfaces 112a and pressure-side slipper cam surfaces 112b. A contact surface between the center-side assist cam surface 106a and the pressure-side assist cam surface 112a and a contact surface between the center-side slipper cam surface 106b and the pressure-side slipper cam surface 112b are formed at different positions in a radial direction.

    Abstract: A clutch drive unit 220 includes a crank arm 221 configured to rotate by rotary driving of a clutch actuator 231. The crank arm 221 includes an output pin 222 configured to press a master cylinder 232, and a receiving pin 223 configured to receive pressing force P from an extendable body 228. The extendable body 228 includes a lock spring 228a with such strength that the pressing force P is generated. The pressing force P allows pressing moment PM greater than reactive force moment RM based on reactive force R acting on the crank arm 221 from a clutch 210 to act on the crank arm 221. The extendable body 228 is, by the stretching force of the lock spring 228a, provided in a stretched state between the receiving pin 223 and a holder receiving pin 229.

    Abstract: Provided is a saddle-ride type vehicle, which does not reduce cooling efficiency of an engine, is hardly affected by heat from the engine, and can increase a degree of freedom of configuration such as the orientation at the time of arrangement, size and shape of a shift actuator. The saddle-ride type vehicle (100) includes the engine (120), and the engine (120) has a cylinder block (120a), a cylinder head (120b) and a head cover (120c) and has a crankcase (123) below the cylinder block (120a). The saddle-ride type vehicle (100) also includes a shift drum drive unit (140) for rotating a shift drum (136) which changes a gear train (133) in a transmission (132). The shift drum drive unit (140) includes a shift actuator (141) formed of an electric motor, and a decelerator (142). The shift drum drive unit (140) is attached to a front surface of the crankcase (123) below the cylinder block (120a) via a unit case (146) housing the decelerator (142).

    Abstract: A continuously variable transmission that can suppress the size increase, complication, and weight increase of the device configuration is provided. A continuously variable transmission 100 includes a drive pulley 101 that is connected to a crank shaft 90. The drive pulley 101 includes a fixed drive plate 102 that is rotationally driven directly by driving force of an engine and a movable drive plate 110 that approaches or become separated with respect to the fixed drive plate 102 in accordance with centrifugal force by rotational drive of the crank shaft 90. A displacement resistor 120 including a rod body abuts on the movable drive plate 110 in the state in which the fixed drive plate 102 is penetrated. The displacement resistor 120 is pressed by a resistance spring 134 of a pressing mechanism 130 provided outside the fixed drive plate 102. In the pressing mechanism 130, a variable mechanism 140 adjusts pressing force by the resistance spring 134.

    Abstract: Provided is a centrifugal clutch having a simple configuration and configured so that a clutch capacity can be increased. A centrifugal clutch (200) includes a drive plate (210) to be directly rotatably driven by drive force of an engine. The drive plate (210) includes swing support pins (214) and protrusions (218). The swing support pin (214) is fitted in a pin slide hole (231) formed at a clutch weight (230), and swingably supports the clutch weight (230). The protrusion (218) includes a cylindrical roller, and contacts a driven portion (235) of the clutch weight (230). The pin slide hole (231) is formed in a long hole shape allowing the clutch weight (230) to displace backward in a rotary drive direction of the drive plate (210). The driven portion (235) is formed to extend inclined outward to a rear side in the rotary drive direction of the drive plate (210).

    Abstract: A saddled vehicle driven by a driver can include a detection device and a cruise control device for judging the other vehicles detected by the detection device and traveling in a same traffic lane as the own vehicle's traffic lane as a preceding vehicle and for automatically controlling travel of the vehicle driven by the driver so that the vehicle driven by the driver follows the preceding vehicle and keeps a preset intervehicular distance relative to the preceding vehicle. The cruise control device can obtain a forward intervehicular distance which is a distance from the vehicle driven by the driver to the preceding vehicle in a traveling direction and a side intervehicular distance which is a distance from the vehicle driven by the driver to the preceding vehicle in a vehicle width direction and can perform the automatic travel control of the vehicle driven by the driver in accordance with the forward intervehicular distance and the side intervehicular distance.
