Member Function Documentation
◆ Initialize()
|
overridevirtual |
Use this function after gear creation, to initialize it, given two shafts to join.
Each shaft must belong to the same ChSystem. By default this is a ratcheting clutch with 24 teeth: use SetRatchetingModeTeeth() or SetRatchetingModeStep() or SetJammingMode() to change this.
- Parameters
-
shaft_1 first shaft to join shaft_2 second shaft to join
Reimplemented from chrono::ChShaftsCouple.
◆ IsFreeForward()
|
inline |
If true, shaft 1 is free to rotate forward respect to shaft 2 (default).
Viceversa, if false. Use SetFreeForward() or SetFreeBackward() to change this mode.
◆ IsModeJamming()
|
inline |
True if the clutch is working in "jamming mode" like a sprag clutch.
This represents a perfect unidirectional clutch without backward backlash.
◆ IsModeRatcheting()
|
inline |
True if the clutch is working in "ratcheting mode".
This implies some periodic backward backlash.
◆ SetFreeBackward()
| void chrono::ChShaftsFreewheel::SetFreeBackward | ( | ) |
Shaft 1 free to rotate backward respect to shaft 2.
Viceversa, forward rotation of 1 respect to 2 is prevented and will generate a torque.
◆ SetFreeForward()
| void chrono::ChShaftsFreewheel::SetFreeForward | ( | ) |
Shaft 1 free to rotate forward respect to shaft 2.
Viceversa, backward rotation of 1 respect to 2 is prevented and will generate a torque.
◆ SetJammingMode()
| void chrono::ChShaftsFreewheel::SetJammingMode | ( | ) |
Set if you want the clutch to work in "jamming mode" like a sprag clutch, based on friction with pawls and jamming.
This is like a ratcheting clutch with infinite teeth, hence a perfect unidirectional clutch without backward backlash, but instead of using SetRatchetingModeStep(0), that can't work well because of bad conditioning, just use this.
◆ SetRatchetingModeStep()
| void chrono::ChShaftsFreewheel::SetRatchetingModeStep | ( | double | mt | ) |
Set if you want the clutch to work in "ratcheting mode", here defined via an angular step in [rad].
When in ratcheting mode, there is a periodic "backward backlash", like in bicycle freewheels.
◆ SetRatchetingModeTeeth()
| void chrono::ChShaftsFreewheel::SetRatchetingModeTeeth | ( | int | n_teeth | ) |
Set if you want the clutch to work in "ratcheting mode", here defined via a number of teeth.
When in ratcheting mode, there is a periodic "backward backlash", like in bicycle freewheels.
