【 摘 要 】

It is well known that slipping in automotive clutches is closely related to the concave deformation of the pressure plate, but the mechanism of this deformation is not clear. A simplified model of a pressure plate assembly is developed by simulating the deformation field of the plate under the condition of continuous sliding, followed by natural cooling to room temperature. The distribution of displacement is obtained from numerical simulations. The equivalent von Mises stresses of the pressure plate with or without concave deformation are analyzed and compared. The mechanism leading to the concave deformation of the pressure plate is put forward in terms of equivalent von Mises stress. The results show that (1) the concave deformation of the pressure plate is produced during the cooling process and (2) the profile of the concave deformation is determined by its thermal stress distribution. The deformation is mainly caused by the overstressed upper part of the inner rim of the pressure plate during clutch operations.
