What is the definition of a Chinese Truck Clutch?

The Chinese Truck Clutch acts as the equivalent of transferring the power from the engine to the resistance box. But in this transmission process there may be different speeds and torques, the faster the speed, the higher the ratio, so this process must act as a clutch.

What is the definition of a Chinese Truck Clutch?

       The Chinese Truck Clutch is installed between the engine and the transmission and is the assembly in the vehicle driveline that is directly connected to the engine. Usually the clutch is mounted together with the flywheel of the engine crankshaft and is the component that cuts off and transmits power between the engine and the vehicle driveline. During the whole process from the start of the car to normal driving, the driver can manipulate the clutch as needed to temporarily separate or gradually join the engine and the transmission to cut off or transfer the power output from the engine to the transmission. Its function is to enable the engine and transmission to be gradually engaged so as to ensure a smooth start for the car; to temporarily cut off the connection between the engine and transmission in order to facilitate gear changes and reduce the impact when shifting; when the car is braked in an emergency the double foot clutch, also called the pull clutch, used to be a technical means of preventing the wheel speed and engine speed from getting out of control.

What are some common reasons why a Chinese Truck Clutch may seize?

• Broken or stretched Chinese Truck Clutch cable - The cable needs to be properly tensioned to push and pull effectively.

• Leaky or defective slave and/or master clutch cylinders - leaks prevent the cylinders from building up the necessary pressure.

• Air in the hydraulic lines - Air affects the hydraulic system by taking up the space needed for the fluid to create pressure.

• Improperly adjusted linkage - The linkage is transmitting the wrong amount of force when your foot is pressed to the pedal.

• Mismatched clutch assembly - Not all aftermarket parts will fit your clutch.

What is included in the Chinese Truck Clutch?

• Clutch disc/clutch plate - connected to the transmission

• Release mechanism (mechanical or hydraulic)

• Cable - connects the clutch pedal to the fork

• Linkage - connects fork to pressure plate

• Clutch pressure plate(clutch cover) - connects to the clutch disc

• Flywheel - connects to engine

• Pilot bearing - connects the input shaft to the clutch disc

• Release or "throw away" bearing(clutch bearing)

• Clutch fork - adjusts the force between the pressure plate and the clutch by means of a linkage
