GENERAL
CLUTCH

The clutch is a single dry plate type, comprising clutch
disc, pressure plate assembly and release bearing.

The clutch plate consists of a resilient steel disc attached
to a splined hub sliding on the clutch shaft. The clutch
facings are riveted to both faces of the disc.

The pressure plate assembly, which consists of the clutch
cover and a Cast pressure plate under pressure from spiral
springs, is attached to the flywheel by means of bolts.

The coil springs are kept in place by guides on the pres-
sure plate and the clutch cover. Three clutch release levers
are carried on struts and riveted to the clutch cover. The
pressure plate assembly is held together by the three clutch
levers, which are secured by lugs on the struts. A spring
loaded steel disc, against which the release bearing is pres-
sed when declutching, rests on the inner ends of the clutch
levers.

The release bearing comprises a ball bearing held in a bear-
ing housing, which is retained in the clutch fork by springs.
A teflon coating on the ball bearing presses against

the release plate when declutching. The power is transmit-
ted from the flywheel via the clutch cover and pressure
plate to the clutch disc, and from there to the clutch
shaft. One end of the clutch shaft is carried in a self lubri-
cating bearing in the crankshaft, and the other in a needle
bearing in the gear box primary shaft. In the middle of the

clutch shaft is a ball bearing with radial clearance in the

clutch cover but locked axially by means of retaining rings.

Axial guiding of the clutch shaft is provided for by this
bearing. The pressure plate is pressed against the clutch
disc by the coil springs, and is when declutching moved
away from the flywheel by the three clutch levers. The
release bearing is supported by the clutch fork which is
attached to the vertical release shaft carried in the gear
box cover. The clutch operation is hydraulic. It com-
prises a master cylinder that is actuated by the clutch
pedal. A hose connects the master cylinder to a slave cy!-
inder which influences the clutch lever and release bear-

ing.

TRANSMISSION

The transmission is designed for front wheel drive and
arranged so that all shafts with their gears, free wheel,
differential and inner universal joint form a complete
unit.

The transmission has synchromesh for all forward gears,
whereas the reverse gear comprises a sliding gear wheel.
The transmission train comprises an input clutch shaft,
freewheel, primary shaft, countershaft, pinion shaft, dif-
ferential and inner universal joints. The shafts are carried
in ball bearings in the gear box cover. The unit is connec-

ted to the engine by means of a clutch housing of light
alloy, which also encases the differential. All gear wheels

except the reverse gear wheel, are helical cut and in con-

stant mesh with one another.

Shaft borne gears are either carried on needle bearings or
directly splined.

The transmission has synchronizers on both the primary
shaft and the countershaft.

Gear changing movements are transmitted from the steer-
ing column gear shift lever to three shift forks. These shift
forks are able to slide on their shafts and are locked in
their respective gear positions by spring loaded poppet
balls, which fit into recesses made for this purpose on the
shafts.

In addition, arrangements are provided which make it im-
possible to engage two gears simultaneously.

The working of the transmission is shown by the expla-
natory sketch.

In 1st gear, power is transmitted from the primary shaft
to the counter shaft via an intermediate gear behind the
freewheel. The 1st speed gear, which is carried on the
countershaft, is locked to the shaft by a sliding sleeve.
The power is then transmitted to the 3rd speed gear,
which is borne on the primary shaft, and thence to the
3rd gear on the pinion shaft.

In 2nd gear, power is transmitted to the pinion shaft

in the same way as when driving in 1st gear, except
that the engagement sleeve now locks the 2nd speed
gear, instead of the 1st to the countershaft.

The power is then transmitted to the 4th speed gear on
the main shaft and thence to the 4th gear on the pinion
shaft.

in 3rd and 4th gears, power is transmitted from the pri-
mary shaft to the 3rd or 4th speed gear, as applicable,
which is then locked to the primary shaft by means of
a sliding sleeve. In reverse, power is transmitted from
the primary shaft to the countershaft by way of the
previously mentioned intermediate gear behind the free-
wheel. The reverse gear, splined to and sliding on the
countershaft, meshes directly with the 3rd gear on the
pinion shaft, thus turning the latter, together with the
gears, in the reverse direction,

Synchronizer unit

The synchronizer unit functions as described in the fol-
lowing:

When the synchronizer sleeve is made to mesh with, for
instance, the dog ring on the 3rd speed gear, it pushes
in front of it an internally tapered bronze ring. This
ring has external teeth corresponding to those of the

gear dog ring. The bronze ring is able to change its posi-

tion in relation to the sleeve by half a tooth space, and
it also rotates at the same speed as the primary shaft.
If the speed of the 3rd speed gear differs from that of
the primary shaft at the moment when engagement
should commence, the teeth on the bronze ring will
move into the way of the internal teeth on the sleeve,
thus preventing the sleeve from moving in the direction
of the 3rd speed gear. The internal taper of the bronze
ring is then forced over the external 3rd gear taper and
the friction will cause the gear and sleeve to rotate at
the same speed. The path is thus opened for the sleeve,
enabling the synchronizer sleeve teeth to engage the
teeth of the dog ring on the 3rd speed gear.

Freewheel

The freewheel transmits the power from the clutch shaft
to the transmission Primary shaft. The freewheel hub,
which is splined to the clutch shaft, has six roller seats
each containing a roller. Each of the rollers is individually
spring loaded by means of a coil spring and a plunger,
which constantly try to press the roller up into the
curved roller seat. The freewheel hub is enclosed in a cyl-
indrical sleeve which is an integral part of the primary
shaft. As from transmission No. F114860, the freewheel
comprises ten rollers each with two springs and plungers.
As from transmission No. 369279, more powerful springs
and plungers have been introduced. Complete freewheels
of earlier and {ater versions are fully interchangeable.
The clutch shaft is Connected to the engine crankshaft,
and when the engine is driving the car the freewheel en-
gages, being caused to do so because the freewheel hub
tends to rotate faster than the primary shaft. The rollers
are then forced up onto the curve shaped roller seats in
the freewheel hub.

When the rollers are held between the freewheel hub and
the sleeve, the primary shaft is forced to rotate at the
Same speed as the clutch shaft, with which it is thus vir-
tually united. If, on the other hand, the primary shaft
tends to rotate faster than the clutch shaft, as may occur
when running downhill with the engine idling, for exam-
ple, the rollers are released, i.e. they are carried back to
their curve shaped seats by the freewheel sleeve. Conse-
quently, the sleeve — the primary shaft — is able to rotate
faster than the clutch shaft.

The freewheel is equipped with a blocking device by
means of which it can be completely locked.

The differential comprises two differential gears ang two
front drive shaft gears, one for each front drive shaft.

The differential and front drive shaft gears have plain bev.

which they are connected with inner universal joints ang
inner drive shafts. The ring gear, to which the pinion shaft

transmits the transmission torque, is bolted to the differen.
