摘要

The clutch has the task of connecting and disconnecting the engine and the transmission (plus the drivetrain elements attached to the transmission). This ability to disconnect the engine from the rest of the drivetrain is essential to enable the engine to be started, gears to be changed in the transmission and to stop the vehicle. The clutch also smooths out the engine’s rotational irregularities and torsional vibrations.
