Selective electrical control of electromechanical clutch assmbly

Selective electrical control of electromechanical clutch assmbly

A clutch assembly of a vehicle (110) includes a shaft (202) configured to rotate around a rotation axis inside the shaft, a connection arm connected to the shaft, to a pilot-controlled mechanism (113), and to a mechanical servo (117) that controls a movement of the vehicle (110), and an electromecha...

Zusammenfassung:A clutch assembly of a vehicle (110) includes a shaft (202) configured to rotate around a rotation axis inside the shaft, a connection arm connected to the shaft, to a pilot-controlled mechanism (113), and to a mechanical servo (117) that controls a movement of the vehicle (110), and an electromechanical actuator (109; 110; 304a - 304d). The electromechanical actuator (109; 110; 304a - 304d) is configured to be selectively engaged with the shaft (202) via an electromechanical clutch (204/207; 205/208; 303a - 303d), such that the electromechanical actuator (109; 110; 304a - 304d) is disconnected from controlling a movement of the shaft (202) and the connection arm when the electromechanical clutch (204/207; 205/208; 303a - 303d) is disengaged, and the electromechanical actuator (109; 110; 304a - 304d) is configured to control movement of the shaft and the connection arm when the electromechanical clutch (204/207; 205/208; 303a- 303d) is engaged.
