Title:
METHOD OF MONITORING TORQUE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS61182546
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A method of monitoring torque in a drive transmission incorporating a friction clutch assembly having a two part rotatable drive transmitting member (16,17) the two parts of which are relatively movable against the action of damper spring means (23), comprising monitoring the extent of the relative movement of said two parts (16, 17) of said drive transmitting member. The invention also resides in a friction clutch assembly having a two part, rotatable, drive transmitting member (16, 17), the two parts of said member being movable relative to one another against the action of damper spring means (23), the clutch including a plurality of angularly spaced reference means (24a, 25a) on each of said parts (16, 17) of said two part member respectively and sensor means (26) relative to which said two part member (16, 17) rotates, said sensor means (26) monitoring said reference means (24a, 25a) and in use producing, at a plurality of points in each revolution of the two part member, an output representative of the relative positions of said parts (16, 17) of said two part member.
