5、ns All test values indicated herein are based on material conditioned in a controlled atmosphere of 23 +/- 2 C and 50 +/- 5 % relative humidity for not less than 24 h prior to testing and tested under the same conditions unless otherwise specified. Procedure General Operation Using friction plates w

6、ith waffle-groove SD-1777 and BW-4400 friction material, run twelve 4-plate packs, 200 cycles each, for evaluations and three 4-plate packs, 20,000 cycles for durability, according to the procedure below. One pack is considered to be four steels and two friction plates arranged according to Figure 1

7、 and referred to as the 4-plate pack. All torque trace information must be obtained using digitized data acquisition and must be acquired at no less than 1000 points per second. Cleaning Procedure Prior to each durability test, the fixture must be cleaned. After removing the front cover, the spacer,

8、 retainer ring and hub are removed. These parts are cleaned with heptane, scrubbed with a non-metallic bristle brush or non-metallic scouring pad and rinsed. The inside of the test housing, attached ports and thermocouple connections are flushed with heptane using a squeeze bottle. Thoroughly clean

9、all crevices and ports in the housing where lubricant is likely to be trapped. Air blow dry the cleaned parts and test housing. Assembly Procedure 1. Inspect rotating shaft seal (National No. 4471887) for deterioration and replace if necessary. Indication of seal failure or loss of flexibility is th

10、e escape of air past the seals. If this seal is replaced, also replace lip seals No. 1366236 and 3-21196 (both supplied by Greening & Associates, Inc.). 2. Install clutch plate hub, snap ring, and clutch plate retainer. 3. Inspect clutch plates prior to testing using the following procedure. (a) Fin

11、d the thickest spot of each plate and arrange the plates so the thick spots are distributed around the pack, for minimum thickness. FORD LABORATORY TEST METHOD BJ 115-02 Page 3 of 8 Copyright 2001, Ford Global Technologies, Inc. (b) Identify each plate by marking the top tooth with a number, one thr

12、ough six in the sequence shown in Figure 1. This number will be at the top when each plate is installed for test. (c) Mark a tooth at approximately 120 each way around from the numbered tooth on each plate. (d) Measure and record average overall pack thickness under a 14 kg load. (e) Measure plate t

13、hickness as follows: At each of the three locations, 120 apart, measure at two places, one near the inside, and one near the outside diameter. These measurements will be labeled “initial“. (f) Use micrometer, and keep the entire anvil within the friction contact area for each measurement. (g) After

14、the durability test repeat these measurements in the same order and at the same places, beginning at the numbered tooth. These measurements are labeled “final“. (h) Subtract the “final“ measurements from the “initial“ measurements. Wear limit at any of the six places is 0.1524 mm. Average wear per p

15、late is not to exceed 0.0762 mm. 4. Presoak clutch plates in test fluid for 5 minutes minimum and then install clutch plates in the test head in the order prescribed with plate rounded side facing operator. 5. Install packs into test head. Thermocouple is to be located at the mid point of the back t

16、o back plates of the 4-plate pack. 6. Install two spacers only between the cover and the outermost clutch plate to locate the thermocouple at the center of the test pack. 7. Check clutch plate pack free movement. Clearance is 0.70 +/- 0.13 mm. This measurement, conveniently made with a depth microme

17、ter, is made between the head and outermost clutch plate while the pack is pressed into the head with finger pressure (about 1 kg) at the sites of measurements. 8. Install thermocouple between the 4 and 5 oclock position to within 1.0 mm of steel clutch plate annulus O.D. (without touching clutch pl

18、ate). 9. Install new O-rings on cover, if necessary. Print 134-D8 O-rings are Precision Seal No. 265 and No. 272 or equivalent. 10. Attach cover and fasten with ring-bearing support and cover retainer, print 134-D18. FORD LABORATORY TEST METHOD BJ 115-02 Page 4 of 8 Copyright 2001, Ford Global Techn
