Scope and Scenarios of Use for Clutch Assist Valve
The use range and scenarios of clutch assist valves (usually also known as clutch boosters or control valve systems in clutch boosters) are mainly concentrated in automotive transmission systems, especially those vehicles that use hydraulic operated clutch mechanisms. Here is a detailed explanation:
Scope of use of clutch assist valve
Clutch assist valves are mainly used in medium and heavy-duty vehicles as well as some sedans. These vehicles usually require the clutch to withstand significant force and wear due to their large weight and high engine torque. In order to reduce the force acting on the clutch pedal and avoid increasing the pedal stroke due to the transmission ratio of the transmission device being too large, these vehicles often add various assist devices on the basis of mechanical or hydraulic control mechanisms, including clutch assist valves.
Application scenarios of clutch assist valve
1. Daily driving:
In daily driving, when the driver steps on the clutch pedal, hydraulic oil enters the clutch booster and provides assistance through the assist valve system. In this way, drivers can more easily control the clutch and reduce driving fatigue.
2. Overloading or climbing:
In scenarios that require high power such as heavy loads or climbing, the clutch needs to transmit greater torque. At this point, the role of the clutch assist valve is more significant, as it can provide sufficient assistance to ensure that the clutch can smoothly and reliably disengage and engage.
3. Complex road conditions:
In complex road conditions, such as frequent starting, parking, or frequent gear shifting, the clutch assist valve can ensure that the driver can more easily control the clutch, improving driving convenience and safety.
