Hydraulic clutch

Hydraulic clutch

Compared with mechanical clutch, hydraulic clutch uses fluid (generally oil) as transmission medium. In addition to various changes in transmission characteristics, it mainly absorbs the vibration and impact caused by the rotation of driving shaft and driven shaft.

The structure of the hydraulic clutch includes an input shaft with a speed increasing gear system, a working fluid flow chamber composed of an impeller, a driven wheel and an impeller housing, an output shaft with a driven wheel, and the driven wheel and the impeller can be operatively combined together; generally, the impeller housing and the impeller are composed of materials with small specific gravity and large stress bearing range to reduce Centrifugal stress.
