Dog clutch used to drive the rotating platter in a microwave oven. Dog clutch (disengaged) on the countershaft gears of the Honda CBR600RR transmission.. A dog clutch (also known as a dog box, dog gears, dog ring, clutch dog, or positive clutch) is a type of clutch that couples two rotating shafts or other rotating components by engagement of interlocking teeth or dogs rather than by friction.
The dog clutch contrasts with the friction clutch, the most basic form of which comprises a smooth disc and pressure plate: when pressed together they lock up simply through friction, which permits some degree of slip as the mating pressure is modulated and thus permits some difference in the rotational speeds of the discs.
In this position, the dog clutch is prevented from engaging. Once the speeds are synchronized, friction on the blocker ring is relieved and the blocker ring twists slightly, bringing into alignment certain grooves or notches that allow the dog clutch to fall into the engagement. [citation needed]
The Powerflow design is of the layshaft type with constant-mesh gears and dog clutch engagement, allowing it to provide seamless power delivery during upshifts. This transmission was also used in some road vehicles. [136]
