Research on Dynamic Performance of Power Shift Clutch

Abstract

Abstract. Smooth shift and low shift shock are needed to improve power shift quality and comfort of construction vehicle. And higher dynamic performance of power shift clutch is needed. In this paper, the dynamic mathematical model and simulation model of the clutch engagement process were established, the factors affecting the shift quality were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. The simulation model of the transmission system was established based on the software AMESim, the corresponding vehicle tests were performed, and the shifting quality was improved by changing key parameters. Analysis results illustrate that the proposed mathematical model and simulation model are correct and effective and can be used to predict and evaluate construction vehicle shift-feel, which are the theoretical basis for analysis and research on the static and dynamic characteristics of the dynamic shifting process in the future.
