Abstract
A synchronization and clutch control fork for a gear box. The fork has notched outer lateral surfaces. Two friction shoes are mounted on the two arms of the fork. Each shoe comprises two lugs inside its lateral flanks. The lugs are snap fit into two notches in the outer lateral surfaces of the arms of the fork. The two arms of the fork are intended to come into contact with the periphery of a driving gear.
Claims5
A synchronization and clutch control fork for a gear box, the fork having outer lateral surfaces with notches therein and comprising two friction shoes mounted on the two arms of the fork and intended to come into contact with the periphery of a driving gear, characterized in that each shoe comprises inside its lateral flanks two lugs which are snap-fit into the two notches in the outer lateral surfaces of the arms of the fork, the notches extending over the entire height of the arms of the fork, each shoe further comprising edges flanged onto the outer peripheral surface of the arm of the fork.
A synchronization and clutch control fork for a gear box, the fork having outer lateral surfaces with notches therein and comprising two friction shoes mounted on the two arms of the fork and intended to come into contact with the periphery of a driving gear, characterized in that each shoe comprises inside its lateral flanks two lugs which are snap-fit into the two notches in the outer lateral surfaces of the arms of the fork, the notches extending over a portion of the height of the arms of the fork.
A synchronization and clutch control fork control fork for a gear box, the fork having outer lateral surfaces with notches therein and comprising two friction shoes mounted on the two arms of the fork and intended to come into contact with the periphery of a driving gear, characterized in that each shoe comprises inside its lateral flanks two lugs which are snap-fit into the two notches in the outer lateral surfaces of the arms of the fork, the lugs being provided in a median portion of the length of the shoes.
A synchronization and clutch control fork for a gear box, the fork having outer lateral surfaces with notches therein and comprising two friction shoes mounted on the two arms of the fork and intended to come into contact with the periphery of a driving gear, characterized in that each shoe comprises inside its lateral flanks two lugs which are snap-fit into the two notches in the outer lateral surfaces of the arms of the fork, the height of the lugs being greater than the thickness of the lateral flanks of the shoes plus the functional play prior to wear between the lateral flanks of the shoes and the corresponding flanks of the driving gear.
