    摘要: A clutch device for a clutch system has a nose cap and a piston that is movable in an axial direction with respect to the nose cap. A seal disposed in the axial direction between the nose cap and the piston automatically locks the clutch device when a threshold amount of wear has accrued in a friction interface of the clutch device. If the seal is not compressed in the axial direction, then a pressurized fluid can flow past the seal and the piston is displaced in the axial direction away from the nose cap. If the seal is compressed in the axial direction, then the pressurized fluid does not flow past the seal and the piston is not displaced in the axial direction away from the nose cap.

    摘要: Some embodiments of a fan clutch system may drive an output member to rotate at a first speed when opposing friction clutch surfaces are engaged and to rotate at a second, slower speed when the friction clutch surfaces are shifted to a disengaged position. In particular embodiments, the multi-speed clutch system may employ an eddy current drive system that is arranged axially rearward of the friction clutch surfaces while the fan blade device is mounted in a position that is axially forward of the of the friction clutch surfaces.

    摘要: Buckling spring member, particularly for use with a friction clutch mechanism for dual mode water pumps. The buckling spring member is made from a thin piece of a metal material and has a circular configuration. The center portion of the spring member is concave with a plurality of openings and spokes. The openings are preferably heart-shaped. The inner and outer rings are substantially planar and provide rigidity. The friction clutch mechanism and buckling spring mechanism are preferably used for dual mode coolant pumps with two modes of operation, namely an electric motor operation and a mechanical pulley-driven operation.

    摘要: A shifting device for a motor vehicle is described, comprising a first coupling component which is adapted to be selectively rotationally coupled to a second coupling component with a form-fit. In an open state, the first coupling component is rotationally decoupled from the second coupling component. In a frictional fit state, the coupling components are rotationally coupled with a frictional fit via a first frictional fit ring and a second frictional fit ring. In a form-fit state, an actuating ring is rotationally coupled to the first coupling component and the second coupling component with a form-fit such that the latter are connected with a form-fit. A motor vehicle transmission, in particular a fully automatic stepped transmission having such a shifting device is additionally presented.

    摘要: A friction clutch having a clutch ring and having two clutch disks, which are mounted so as to be rotatable about a clutch axis of rotation and on which friction surfaces are formed, is presented. In this case, the clutch ring and the clutch disks can be moved parallel to the clutch axis of rotation and relative to one another in such a way that, for torque transmission, first friction surfaces on each of the clutch disks can be moved into frictional surface contact with a respective second friction surface on the clutch ring. A first and a second friction surface in each case are matched to one another as a friction surface pair, having in each case a friction surface curved convexly in the direction of the clutch axis of rotation and a friction surface curved concavely in the direction of the clutch axis of rotation.

    摘要: An auger brake clutch and drive assembly and related methods for a power equipment device such as a snowblower are provided. In use with a snowblower, the auger brake clutch assembly and related methods can be used for driving both the auger and driven wheels of a snowblower. The auger brake clutch can include a transmission wheel rotatably movable for rotating at least one wheel with the transmission wheel having a contact surface. A drive pulley can be provided that has a drive surface. The drive pulley is rotatable and configured for causing the transmission wheel to rotate when the drive surface and the contact surface of the transmission wheel are in contact. An actuation plate is movable to move the drive pulley in and out of contact with the contact surface of the transmission wheel. A friction member can be provided to be selectively rotated by the drive pulley and configured to transfer the rotation to an output shaft, which can attach for example to at least one of an auger or blower blades.
