Koppelingsplaatmontage voor zware vrachtwagens: de kernwaarde van wrijvingsplaat

De algehele samenstelling en functionele positionering van het koppelingsplaatsamenstel
De koppelingsplaat voor zware vrachtwagens is een belangrijk transmissiecomponent tussen de motor en de versnellingsbak. De kernfunctie ervan is het bewerkstelligen van een soepele betrokkenheid en een volledige scheiding van de macht. Dit samenstel bestaat uit meerdere componenten, zoals een wrijvingsplaat, een aangedreven schijfnaaf, een golfplaat, een drukplaat, enz. Hiervan is de wrijvingsplaat het contactonderdeel dat rechtstreeks betrokken is bij de krachtoverbrenging en de kern van de gehele werking van het systeem. Wanneer de motor draait, regelt de koppelingsplaat het aan- en uitschakelen van de krachtstroom door de verandering van de contacttoestand tussen de wrijvingsplaat en het vliegwiel en de drukplaat, waardoor een soepele uitvoering van het starten, schakelen, parkeren en andere handelingen van het voertuig wordt gegarandeerd.

De core role of friction plate in power transmission
De core value of friction plate is reflected in its ability to accurately control power. In the power transmission stage, the pressure plate presses the friction plate against the flywheel surface under the action of the spring force. At this time, the friction plate transmits the torque output by the engine from the flywheel to the driven disc by virtue of its own friction with the metal surface, and then transmits it to the gearbox input shaft through the driven disc hub, and finally drives the wheels to rotate. In this process, the friction coefficient of the friction plate directly determines the efficiency of power transmission. Only when the friction coefficient is stable and large enough can the torque transmission be ensured without slippage and power loss be avoided. In the power cut-off stage, after the driver steps on the clutch pedal, the pressure plate separates from the friction plate, the friction between the friction plate and the flywheel disappears, and the power transmission path is interrupted, creating conditions for the shifting operation.

Directe impact van de prestaties van de wrijvingsplaat op de montage van de koppelingsplaat
De performance parameters of the friction plate are the core indicators for measuring the quality of heavy duty truck clutch disc assembly. The stability of the friction coefficient is the key. If the friction coefficient decreases significantly with the increase of temperature, it will cause the clutch to slip, the power transmission efficiency to drop sharply, and even cause problems such as the vehicle's inability to climb and slow acceleration. Wear resistance determines the service life of the clutch plate assembly. Heavy trucks are in a high-load operation state for a long time. If the friction plate wears too quickly, the replacement cycle of the assembly will be shortened and the maintenance cost will be increased. The impact resistance of the friction plate is also important. When the vehicle starts or accelerates sharply, the friction plate needs to withstand the instantaneous increase in torque impact. If its structural strength is insufficient, cracks or partial detachment may occur, directly leading to the failure of the clutch plate assembly. The material selection and process treatment of the friction plate are the basis for ensuring the reliability of the clutch plate assembly. ​

De linkage relationship between the friction plate and the vehicle transmission system​
De performance of the friction plate is not only limited to the heavy duty truck clutch disc assembly, but also has a chain effect on the vehicle transmission system. When the friction plate is unevenly worn or the friction coefficient fluctuates, intermittent impact will occur in the power transmission. This impact will be transmitted to the rear axle through the gearbox, drive shaft and other components. Long-term accumulation may lead to increased gear meshing clearance, increased bearing wear, and even cause serious faults such as drive shaft resonance. On the contrary, high-quality friction plates can reduce the additional load of the transmission system through smooth power engagement, and extend the service life of key components such as the gearbox and drive axle. From the perspective of vehicle operation, the stability of the friction plate is directly related to the vehicle's attendance rate. Frequent clutch failures will cause the vehicle to stop, and reliable friction plate performance is the hidden prerequisite for ensuring transportation efficiency. ​

Materiaaleigenschappen en procesvereisten van frictieplaten
De performance of the friction plate is determined by its material composition and manufacturing process. At present, mainstream friction plates are mostly made of composite fiber materials, with metal fibers, glass fibers, aramid fibers, etc. as the skeleton, mixed with friction performance regulators and high-temperature adhesives. This composite material can not only ensure a sufficient friction coefficient, but also maintain structural stability in high temperature environments. In the manufacturing process, the uniform distribution of fibers is the key. If the local fiber density is insufficient, the friction plate will wear at different speeds and shorten its service life. The curing process of the adhesive directly affects the high-temperature resistance of the friction plate. It is necessary to precisely control the temperature and pressure to ensure the bonding strength between the materials. The flatness of the friction plate surface is also crucial. Too high roughness will aggravate the wear of the flywheel and the pressure plate, while too low roughness may lead to insufficient initial friction and affect the power transmission efficiency. ​​
