Pneumatic clutches are equipment drive assemblies that contain pneumatic components for connecting two shafts so that they can either be locked together and spin at the same speed, or decoupled and spin at different speeds. Pneumatic clutches transmit force from one point to another using compressed air or other gases. Engaging a pneumatic clutch transfers power from an engine to devices such as a transmission and drive wheels. Disengaging a pneumatic clutch stops the power transfer, but allows the engine to continue turning.
Specifications for pneumatic clutches include torque rating, power, rotational speed, and maximum pressure. Spring-return clutches require power to engage. Spring-actuated clutches require power to disengage. A variety of engagement methods are available. Non-contact clutches uses methods such as magnetic fields and eddy currents. Friction clutches generate friction between contact surfaces. Wrap spring clutches transmit torque from the input to the output through a wrapped spring that uncoils to disengage the clutch. Pneumatic clutches with teeth engage only during stops or at slow speeds. Oil shear clutches achieve drive engagement through the viscous shear of transmission fluid between the clutch plates. Other plate-based clutches control torque with compression springs. Sprags, steel wheels that tip in one direction to wedge between inner and outer races, are clutches that can often transmit more torque than other slip or overrunning devices. Ball detent clutches feature a slip mechanism in which, upon overload, seated balls are dislodged and overcome springs or air pressure engagement. Similarly, pawl clutches overcome spring or air pressure engagement and rotate out of their detent. With roller detent clutches, rollers that are held in place by springs wedge between the inner and outer races to engage the clutch.
In parole povere quando decelleriamo da quel tubo arrivano i gas e aria compressa del motore che disattiva la trasmissione così da evitare il blocco della ruota dietro...
Io nel multistrada 620 avevo la frizione ATPC che però funzionava per inerzia... la PPC come spiegato sopra ha un funzionamento diverso a mio parere + afficace
