Self-adjusting clutch actuator
A self-adjusting clutch actuator includes a transmission element displaceable in a displacement direction; and a compensation mechanism having a piston displaceable in the displacement direction of the transmission element. The compensation mechanism allows a first relative displacement (X) of the transmission element relative to the piston in the displacement direction when there is no actuating force in the clutch actuator, and blocks the first relative displacement (X) when an actuating force is introduced into the clutch actuator by bringing a frictional element (4) into contact with a counter-element. The frictional element (4) is designed for a second relative displacement (Y) relative to the counter-element when the first relative displacement (X) is not blocked by the compensation mechanism (22). A translatory mechanism provided between the transmission element (1) and the piston (2) is designed to cause the second relative movement (Y), by the first relative displacement (X) relative to the counter-element.
Actuating device with dirt shielding
An actuating device for a motor vehicle, including a housing and a multi-part working piston movable in relation to the housing. The multi-part working piston has a main piston and an adjusting piston, which pistons are formed in a manner movable axially with respect to each other to compensate for wear. A clamping device clamps the main piston and the adjusting piston in relation to each other in order to fix an operative length of the working piston. The main piston and the adjusting piston are partial pistons of the working piston. A shielding element for protecting the actuating device from dirt is arranged on the housing and a partial piston or on a first partial piston and a second partial piston or on an adjusting piston and on the clamping device.
ACTUATING APPARATUS FOR A FRICTION CLUTCH, AND CLUTCH SYSTEM
An actuating apparatus has a first and a second actuating element that delimit a pressure chamber. The actuating apparatus has a rotary decoupling bearing coupled via a compensation assembly to the second actuating element for joint movement along the spatial axis. The compensation assembly comprises a first ramp element which is supported axially on the second actuating element and is preloaded relative to the second actuating element by a first preloading apparatus for rotation about the spatial axis and a second ramp element coupled to the rotary decoupling bearing. An axial overall length of the compensation group along the spatial axis changes in the case of a rotation, of the first ramp element relative to the second actuating element. The compensation assembly has a blocking element and a blocking toothing system in blocking engagement with a counter-blocking toothing system of the first ramp element
ABRASION COMPENSATION DEVICE, CLUTCH ACTUATOR UNIT INCLUDING ABRASION COMPENSATION DEVICE, AND VEHICLE INCLUDING CLUTCH ACTUATOR UNIT

Actuation mechanism, in particular for a clutch actuator
An actuation mechanism for a clutch, includes: an actuation element designed to be applied with an actuating force and to be shifted in an actuation direction by same; a transfer element designed to carry out a shift in the actuation direction; and a compensation mechanism designed to apply a reinforcing clamping force for the frictionally engaged transfer of the actuating force between the transfer element and the actuation element, when an actuating force is applied to the actuation element. The compensation mechanism has a friction element and a counter surface which are designed to bring about the reinforcing clamping force via a frictional connection when applying the actuating force. The friction element and the counter surface are designed to generate the reinforcing clamping force via a supporting force resulting from a deflection of the actuating force. The reinforcing clamping force has at least the value of the supporting force.

TRANSMISSION MECHANISM FOR ACTUATING A FRICTION CLUTCH
A transmission mechanism (1) for actuating a friction clutch, which can be disengaged against a spring force and is arranged between an internal combustion engine and a manual transmission, includes two lockable elements (11, 16) that are movable toward one another longitudinally to automatically change the length and compensate for clutch wear. The first element (16) consists of a spindle (16) which is coupled to a non-rotatable component of a disengagement mechanism of the friction clutch in a rotationally fixed and axially displaceable manner and has a steep-pitch external thread (19). second element (11) consists of a nut (11) having a steep-pitch internal thread (15) which is complementary thereto and into which the spindle (16) can be screwed, the pitch of the steep-pitch thread (15, 19) being dimensioned in such a way that no self-locking can occur between the two elements (11, 16).
Actuating mechanism, in particular for a clutch actuator
An actuating mechanism for a clutch actuator includes: an actuating element which is designed to be acted on by an actuating force and thereby displaced in an actuation direction, a transmitting element which is designed to carry out a displacement in the actuation direction, wherein a tensioning element is provided between the actuating element and the transmitting element. The tensioning element is designed to generate, for the transmission of the actuating force to the transmitting element, a clamping pressure force which generates a friction force for the transmission of the actuating force. The friction force is configured so as to be capable of transmitting a maximum actuating force.
