Automatic friction clutch for smoothing variations in power transmission from engine to vehicle transmission components in which preset clutch torque is applied based on motor-torque and slip

摘要

Automatic friction clutch forming part of the drive train of a motor vehicle is controlled so that a preset clutch torque can be transmitted. The preset clutch torque comprises a motor-torque dependent clutch torque (M) and a slip dependent clutch torque (Msr). An Independent claim is made for a device for controlling an automatic friction clutch in the drive train of a motor vehicle.
