Dual clutch with torsional vibration damper
A dual wet clutch in a closed housing. A damper is arranged in the power flow from the housing to the input parts of the wet clutches. The input parts are connected to one another substantially without play. Furthermore, a centrifugal force pendulum is arranged on at least one input part. The arrangement has a particularly short axial structural length.
1. A dual clutch for motor vehicles, comprising:
an oiltight housing;
the housing being connected in a rotationally fixed manner to a crankshaft of an internal combustion engine;
a torsional vibration damper, two wet clutches and a centrifugal pendulum are arranged in the housing;
the wet clutches each have an input part and an output part;
a connecting element connects the input parts of the wet clutches to one another;
the output parts of the wet clutches are connected in a rotationally fixed manner to transmission input shafts;
the torsional vibration damper is arranged in a power flow from the housing to the input parts of the wet clutches, an input part of the torsional vibration damper being connected to the housing, and an output part of the torsional vibration damper being connected to the input parts of the wet clutches; and
the centrifugal pendulum is arranged on an outer circumference of the connecting element,
wherein a scoop tube, which conveys a radially outer fluid present in the housing out of the housing, is arranged in the housing and is shortened radially relative to the centrifugal pendulum so that a radial distance of the scoop tube to a center axis of the double clutch is shorter than a radial distance of the centrifugal pendulum to the center axis, whereby the fluid collects in radial region of the centrifugal pendulum, and the centrifugal pendulum is a wet design centrifugal pendulum.
2. The dual clutch as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the torsional vibration damper and the centrifugal pendulum are arranged substantially on a same diameter and axially in series.
3. The dual clutch as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the torsional vibration damper is fitted with arcuate springs.
4. The dual clutch as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the arcuate springs slide in a sliding shell.
5. The dual clutch as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connecting element drives a pump in a transmission arranged axially in series.
6. The dual clutch as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the centrifugal pendulum is designed for an order greater than an order of the internal combustion engine driving the centrifugal pendulum.
7. The dual clutch as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the centrifugal pendulum is designed for an order which is 0.02 to 0.2 times higher than the order of the internal combustion engine.
8. The dual clutch as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the fluid exchange in the housing is accomplished by means of a pump.
9. The dual clutch as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one wet clutch of the two wet clutches is closed by means of pistons.
10. The dual clutch as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one wet clutch of the two wet clutches is closed by means of a lever actuation mechanism.
