Have you ever wondered why is it possible to stop your Hummer vehicle without stopping its engine? Your most probable answer is because of the clutch. Nonetheless, do you really know how your Hummer clutch really operates? Imagine a vehicle without a clutch. It is inconvenient and inefficient. For instance, supposedly your vehicle’s battery is already exhausted and you are driving along an isolated road but you need to get out of your vehicle to answer nature’s call, how can you stop it without stopping the engine? If you stop the engine, you may not be able to re-start it again. Of course, the solution to this is to disengage the engine from the wheel transmission by using the clutch. However, this is not always true for some earliest models of vehicles. On the other hand, the earliest models do not need batteries to start.
The clutch indeed has a fundamental function in the vehicle’s operation. Karl Benz is generally credited for the invention of this auto part. Among his other car-related inventions include carburetor, gear, shift, spark plug, and radiator. It was in 1885 that the first commercially available automobile was designed by Karl Benz. Contrary to popular assumption, it was not Henry Ford who invented the car or any single person for that matter. The car evolved as an idea which many inventors and scientists have contributed to develop. However, the really first self-propelled road vehicle was driven by a steam engine that was designed by Nicolas Joseph Cugnot in 1769.
The clutch operates by engaging or disengaging the transmission from the engine motor. The left-most pedal of the vehicle operates the clutch. It is by engaging or disengaging the clutch that you are able to shift gears. The clutch mechanism of a vehicle is basically comprised of flywheel, clutch lining, clutch disc, gear casing, pressure plate-plate spring, thrust bearing, clutch lever, and fulcrum. These parts are directly connected to the motor through the drive shaft.
Car clutch mechanism has moving parts. This creates friction and generates heat. The wear and tear process of the clutch is somewhat reduced by adding lubrication fluid in the clutch mechanism. However, most clutch mechanisms do not have lubrication. Either way, clutch may need periodic checkup to maintain the optimal function of your automobile.
