   This is an accepted version of this page This is the latest accepted revision, reviewed on 1 October 2024. Mechanical device that connects and disconnects two rotating shafts or other moving parts For other uses, see Clutch (disambiguation). Friction disk for a dry clutch A clutch is a mechanical device that allows an output shaft to be disconnected from a rotating input shaft. The clutch's ...

3. Manual transmission - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_transmission

   The clutch pedal controls the pressure plate (clutch engaged – the clutch pedal is not being pressed) or not connected to the engine (clutch disengaged – the clutch pedal is being pressed down). When the engine is running and the clutch is engaged (i.e., clutch pedal up), the flywheel spins the clutch pressure plate and hence the transmission.

4. Clutch control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clutch_control

   Clutch control refers to the act of controlling the speed of a vehicle with a manual transmission by partially engaging the clutch plate, using the clutch pedal instead of (or in conjunction with) the accelerator pedal. The purpose of a clutch is in part to allow such control; in particular, a clutch provides transfer of torque between shafts ...

5. Bell housing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_housing

   Bellhousing (aka bell-housing or bell) is a colloquial term for the component that aligns and connects the transmission of a vehicle to its engine, and which covers and protects the flywheel/clutch or flexplate/torque converter. [1] It derives its name from the bell-like shape that those internal components necessitate.

6. Dual-mass flywheel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual-mass_flywheel

   Dual-mass flywheel section. A dual-mass flywheel (DMF or DMFW) is a rotating mechanical device that is used to provide continuous energy (rotational energy) in systems where the energy source is not continuous, the same way as a conventional flywheel acts, but damping any violent variation of torque or revolutions that could cause an unwanted vibration.

7. Flywheel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flywheel

   The efficiency of a flywheel is determined by the maximum amount of energy it can store per unit weight. As the flywheel's rotational speed or angular velocity is increased, the stored energy increases; however, the stresses also increase. If the hoop stress surpass the tensile strength of the material, the flywheel will break apart.
