Abstract
A multi cone clutch is used on the input to a transmission. The clutch has a multi-cone structure which employs sandwiched cone friction surfaces. The multi-cone structure is used for gears selection inside the transmission. In this case, sandwiched cone friction surfaces are in free or unengaged state while the corresponding friction surfaces are engaged. The cone selector is used to engage free rotating female part of a multi-cone selector. A hydraulic actuator is received by internal gear case wall to prevent any radial or axial movement of the actuator itself. The crown of hydraulic spring outlet piston is formed so as to clip in a housing of a thrust bearing is to provide relative rotational movements between cone clutch male part and a piston in idling or power transmitting mode.
