GF27.51-P-2010AHI Multidisk clutch, component description
- TRANSMISSION 722.930


Component Identification:





Location
In the transmission housing 3 multidisk clutches are located as multidisk clutch K1, multidisk clutch K2 and multidisk clutch K3 for the planetary gear sets.

Task
To make a positive friction connection between 2 elements of a planetary gear system or one element each from 2 planetary gear systems to transmit the drive torque.

Component Identification:





A multidisk clutch consists of several internally toothed plates on an internal plate carrier and externally toothed plates on an external plate carrier. Single-sided disks are used on the K1, K2 and K3 multidisk clutches.

On this type of lamella the friction lining is only applied on one side. Among other things, this improves heat distribution in the disk pack, the design of the disk pack is more compact, the load-bearing capacity is increased and the mass is reduced.
