In another embodiment, the main tire body includes an annular first tire material (10), a second tire material (11), and a plurality of airtight chambers (15) which help to absorb impacts. The first tire material (10) is mounted to the rim (3). The second tire material (11) is an annular material with an elastic body attached to the outer peripheral side of the first tire material. The airtight chambers portion (15) are formed in the second tire material between the first tire material. In another embodiment, the main tire body includes an annular first tire material (20), and a second tire material (21). The second tire material (21) is an annular material with an elastic body attached to the outer peripheral side of the first tire material. An airtight annular chamber (22) is formed between the first tire material (20) and second tire material (21). A flat spring ring (24) disposed within the annular chamber (22) to absorb impacts.

Construction in order to improve wear-resistance of a hydraulic fluid chamber in which a clutch release-actuating tubular piston is operative within a cylindrical housing made of a resin-based material reinforced with glass fiber, the piston axially driving a clutch release bearing to force a clutch diaphragm spring to release the clutch of a motor vehicle power train. A sealing member is provided on tile piston for sealing piston-driving hydraulic fluid within the fluid chamber. The cylindrical housing is double-walled, defining the axially extending tubular fluid chamber. A layer of nickel is electroless-plated at least along the fluid chamber bore where the sealing member slides; alternatively stainless steel linings are installed along the corresponding portions of the chamber bore. The plated layer or linings on the fluid chamber improve wear resistance of tile cylindrical housing and make the sealing member less susceptible to damage, lengthening the life of the hydraulic cylinder apparatus composed by the cylindrical housing and associated elements.

A lock-up device is used for a torque converter comprising a front cover connected to an input-side rotation member, an impeller fixed to the front cover, and a turbine provided opposite to the impeller and connected to an output-side member. This lock-up device comprises a plate member and a piston. The above described plate member is connected to the output-side member and located between the turbine and the inner wall of the front cover, and can be brought into contact with the inner wall of the front cover. The above described piston which is connected to the front cover so as not to be relatively rotatable is for pressing the plate member against the inner wall of the front cover.

A torque convertor includes a torque convertor body and a power disconnecting clutch. The torque convertor body is connected to an input-side member for transmitting power to the power disconnecting clutch. The power disconnecting clutch has a drive-side member connected to the torque convertor body, a driven-side member connectable to an output-side member, a clutch part for connecting and disconnecting the drive-side member to and from the drive-side member, and an elastic connecting part for elastically connecting the drive-side member and the output-side member. One aspect of the torque convertor includes a sealing mechanism for preventing hydraulic fluid in the torque convertor from entering a space where the power disconnecting clutch is disposed. Another aspect of torque convertor includes a lock-up clutch disposed radially outward of the torque convertor body for connecting and disconnecting the input-side rotation member to and from the power disconnecting clutch. The further aspect of the torque convertor includes an oil lubricating structure having an oil pump and an oil storing part.
摘要:
A clutch cover assembly comprising, in addition to a clutch cover containing a pressure plate and a diaphragm spring, a spring washer in location and retainment such that it provides cushioning against clutch engagement shock. In a recess in the pressure plate adjacent the diaphragm spring, the spring washer is supported on opposite corresponding sides on annular fulcra, which in clutch disengagement are staggered laterally of the spring washer and remote from each other. During clutch engagement, the spring washer deforms elastically as it transmits the impelling force of the diaphragm spring in tandem therewith, flexing on the fulcra and therein cushioning the clutch-engaging force of the diaphragm spring. One of the annular fulcra is along a curved bottom surface of the clutch pressure plate recess, and as the load from the diaphragm spring on the spring washer increases, the fulcrum locus of contact thus shifts along the washer, approaching the other annular fulcrum. The distance separating the fulcra thus decreases such that the cushioning rigidity of the spring washer Increases gradually with the increasing load as the clutch is engaged. Cushioning characteristics reflecting a parabolic response comparable to that of clutch cover assemblies employing conventional cushioning plates on the clutch disc are realized.

A clutch cover assembly comprising, in addition to a clutch cover containing a pressure plate and a diaphragm spring, a disc spring in location and retainment such that it provides cushioning against clutch engagement shock. The disc spring is installed in a receptacle on the pressure plate, adjacent the diaphragm spring, permitting its elastic deformation as it transmits the impelling force of the diaphragm spring in tandem therewith during clutch engagement. The thereby cushioned force of the diaphragm spring presses the pressure plate pressure surface against the friction facing of a clutch disc and sandwiches the clutch disc between the pressure plate and an engine flywheel.

A damper disc having an output-side plate between a pair of side plates, containing two torsion springs in series in rectangular holes made on the both plates, and disposing a float body freely movable in circumferential direction between the springs. The output-side plate is divided into inside and outside pieces. Each float body is connected by an annular connecting body in such a manner as not to be protrudable. The float body is made of plastic-based resin light in weight and small in friction coefficient.
摘要:
A liquid viscous damper having drive plates (3) and driven plates (23) in a case (1). The drive plates (3) have an annular housing (35) mounted thereon and slidable relative to drive plates (3) in a circumferential direction. A maximum torsional torque limiting stopper mechanism is installed between the housing (35) and the driven plates (23). A torque limiter (51), including balls (52), ball engaging concave portions (53) and urging springs (55) are positioned between the casing (1) and the drive plates (3). The ball engaging concave portions (53) are formed on a sliding surface of the casing (1) and the balls are urged by the urging springs (55) to be pressed onto the sliding surfaces of the case (1) so as to engage with the ball engaging concave portion (53) by a specified pressure for disengagement from concave portions (53) when excessive impact torque is applied.
