What is the function of a loader clutch? What are the requirements for it?

(1) Function of the clutch When the clutch is disengaged, the engine and the transmission system are disengaged, making it easy to shift gears and reduce the impact when shifting into gear. The clutch gradually changes from separation to engagement to ensure a smooth start of the vehicle. When the vehicle is under emergency braking, the clutch will automatically slip to avoid damage to transmission system parts due to overloading and play a protective role. (2) Requirements for the clutch Loaders using mechanical transmission require the clutch to reliably transmit the maximum torque of the engine under any driving conditions; the clutch engagement is required to be smooth and gentle to avoid impact and jitter when starting; the clutch is required to be disengaged quickly and completely , in order to make gear shifting easy and reduce or avoid impact; it requires light and labor-saving operation to reduce driver fatigue; because the clutch is frequently used during loader work, it is required that the clutch works reliably, does not malfunction, has a long service life, and is easy to maintain, adjust and repair.
