In a manual transmission vehicle, pressing the clutch pedal causes mechanical or hydraulic linkage to pivot the release fork. Which component does the release fork push directly against the rotating diaphragm spring fingers to disengage the clutch disc?
- AThe differential carrier assembly
- BThe brake master cylinder piston
- The release (throwout) bearingCevap
- DThe suspension strut dampener
Cevap
The release (throwout) bearing directly contacts the rotating diaphragm spring fingers to release clamping pressure on the clutch disc.
The release bearing (also known as the throwout bearing) is mounted on a sliding sleeve over the transmission input shaft. When the clutch pedal is depressed, the release fork moves the release bearing forward into direct contact with the rotating diaphragm spring fingers. Pushing these fingers inward levers the outer ring of the pressure plate away from the clutch disc, interrupting the flow of engine power to the transmission.
