n. that part of a profile cylinder which transfers rotational motion from the inside or outside element to a common cam or actuator
A mechanical device that engages or disengages rotary torque from a power source.
n: a coupling used to connect and disconnect a driving and a driven part of a mechanism, especially a coupling that permits the former part to engage the latter gradually and without shock. In the oil field, a clutch permits gradual engaging and disengaging of the equipment driven by a prime mover. v: to engage or disengage a clutch.
A mechanism that uses plates coated with a high-friction material to transfer power from the engine to the drive train. Clutches can be disengaged by depressing the clutch pedal to allow the gear selection to be changed. Manual transmission vehicles use a clutch to transfer power from the gearbox to the wheels. Air conditioning compressors use clutches as well to reduce the load on the engine when the compressor doesn't need to be rotated.
A mechanical device that provides a regulated connection between the engine and transmission in order to provide a smoother flow of power to the drive wheel.
The friction disk that is mounted to the transmission input shaft. This is what rubs between the flywheel and pressure plate and engages the drive wheels via the transmission.
A mechanism that uses plates coated with a high-friction material to transfer power from the engine to the drive train. Used when changing gear ratios during acceleration Clutches isolate rotating and non-rotating components.
Mechanism to transfer torque from air motor to fastener
The coupling mechanism used on a mechanical power press to couple the flywheel to the crankshaft, either directly or through a gear train.
(1) A device for gripping and holding. (2) Mechanical device for engaging and disengaging a motor or engine.
R/C helicopters use a clutch so that the engine can idle without the rotor blades spinning. Usually they use clutch shoes which when spinning spread out and rub against the clutch drum causing it to rotate and spin the gears.
A foot pedal that disengages the engine from the driveshaft. Used mainly during change of gear.
a device to permit engagement or disengagement of equipment while in motion or at rest.
a pedal that operates a clutch
a coupling that connects or disconnects driving and driven parts of a driving mechanism
a component of an engine's transmission designed to allow engagement or disengagement of the engine to the transmission
a device for transmitting torque between a pair of rotating coaxial shafts
a device that allows a solid coupling to be formed between the transmission and the engine
an apparatus by which two rotating shafts may be connected or disconnected for the purpose of causing one to drive the other
a subcomponent of an engine An engine is something that produces some effect from a given input
a subcomponent of an engine 's transmission designed to allow engagement or disengagement of the engine to the gearbox or whatever apparatus is being driven
A coupling device used to engage or disengage the flow of power from one moving part to another, such as from an engine to a transmission.
A friction device used to connect the engine to the drive train. Used when changing gear ratios during acceleration. Can connect or disconnect the engine and the drive train at driver's will.
A device in a machine for transmitting motion or for disconnecting related moving parts.
A coupling used to connect or disconnect a driving machine-member, such as a shaft or wheel, to or from a driven machine-member, such as another wheel or shaft. The engaging or disengaging may be done by a hand operated controlling device operated manually or by power or may be done automatically.
A drivetrain component that connects an engine to a manual transmission and is used to disengage the transmission from the engine in order to change gears. The driver pushes the clutch pedal to shift gears.
A friction device, which allows two rotating components to be coupled together smoothly, without the need for either rotating component to stop moving.
Ever wondered what happens when you push that left pedal to change gears? A clutch is basically two plates pressed together between the car's engine and the gearbox. Drive from the engine needs to be disconnected so the gearbox can change gears, so pushing the pedal separates the clutch's two plates, lifting the pedal presses them together again.
A mechanical device used to transfer rotational motion from a power source to a driven source. In projectors, the device on the take-up spindle that is used to adjust the tension on the film during take up. When using reels with a hub-to-rim ratio of more than 1:3, the clutch adjustment can be critical if film damage is to be avoided.
A mechanical device for engaging and disengaging a motor often used when many starts and stops are required.
A coupling that engages and disengages a shaft from its drive while the drive mechanism is running. In vehicle manual transmission systems the clutch allows smooth and progressive engagement between engine and gearbox for taking up initial drive, and rapid disengagement for gear selection. In an air conditioning system, the clutch engages and disengages the compressor shaft from its continuously rotating drive-belt pulley.
A mechanism that uses plates coated with a high-friction material to transfer power. Clutches are also used to isolate rotating and non-rotating components. Clutches can allow slip between components to reduce "shock" loads between rotating and stationary components. Manual transmission vehicles use a clutch to transfer power from the gearbox to the wheels. Air conditioning compressors use clutches as well.
Any of various contraptions used to engage and disengage two moving parts of a shaft or shaft and driving mechanism. When changing gears, the clutch pedal is pressed, disengaging the clutch and allowing the gear change; when released, the clutch engages and transfers the rotating motion throughout the entire driveshaft.
Part of the power train used to connect/disconnect power to the rear wheels.
The element that engages and disengages the spindle from the motor and controls the amount of torque applied to the fastener.
An automatic clutch in which the friction surfaces are engaged by weighted levers acting under centrifugal force at a certain speed of rotation.
A clutch in the rear-wheel hub that permits the wheel to turn freely without engaging the motor, as in coasting.
Any device that connects or disconnects power transfer in rotating parts. In a manual transmission, this pedal operated device disconnects the engine from the transmission to allow the car to change gears, and then allows the engine and transmission to resume contact and turn together at a new speed. Clutches are also used in automatic transmissions, air conditioners, and differentials.
The plastic and metal assembly on which the cam pivots of a double hung or single hung sash rest. The clutch is attached to the block and tackle system of the balance tubes which allow opening and closing of the sash. The clutches are color coded for easy identification of balance strength.
A device for connecting and disconnecting the power flow between the engine and standard transmissions, used during starting, shifting, and stopping. A device used to connect two collinear shafts to a driving mechanism such as a motor, engine, or line shaft, and to disconnect them at will.
A device used to engage or disengage a load from a power source. This typically enables output control of a power source (such as a motor) without having to turn the motor on and off.
Foot pedal that disengages the engine from the driveshaft. Used during gear changes. Today's F1 cars use semi-automatic gearboxes, so that these are not necesarry. We can speak of automatic clutches
An apparatus that disconnects the engine from the transmission in order for the car to change gears and then enables the gears to resume contact and turn together at a new speed.
A part of the balance system into which the cam pivot is inserted or engaged.
(Machine Safety) A mechanism that, when engaged, transmits torque to impart motion from a driving member to a driven member.
A clutch is a mechanism for transmitting rotation, which can be engaged and disengaged.
