Friction clutch#
Block appearance in REPEAT VISION#
Friction clutch block builds a model of a disk coupling. The model includes a drive coupling on the left and a driven half coupling on the right. The torque is transmitted by the Coulomb friction force between the contacting surfaces of the two coupling halves.
