FLYWHEEL FOR VEHICLE Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: transport mechanical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: flywheel has two fly masses which are made for permitting rotation in bearings with respect to each other against the damping device which has energy accumulators and friction clutch which provides coupling of the secondary fly mass with the outlet shaft of the gear box. The coupling made of safety friction clutch is additionally interposed between the fly mass of the driving shaft of the internal combustion engine and input shaft of the gear box. The clutch is interposed between the member for centering both of the fly masses and ring-shaped member of the second fly mass provided with friction side. Both of the fly masses together with the damper are made in block for permitting fastening them to the driving shaft of the engine via screws which are set inside the energy accumulators through openings.

EFFECT: decreased sizes and prolonged service life.
