Abstract
Friction disk sets of clutches and brakes are used, for example, in automatic transmissions. In clutch test benches for such clutches, the friction disks are held in a test chamber on inner and outer disk carriers. The test bench arrangement has a clutch unit which includes first and second disk carriers. The first disk carrier can be moved relative to the second disk carrier. A drive input section includes a drive input mechanism for producing relative movement between the first and the second disk carrier. A first driven shaft is mounted by at least one first bearing unit. The first disk carrier is drive-connected, via the first shaft, to the drive input mechanism. The first shaft is mounted to rotate by virtue of the first bearing unit. The test bench arrangement includes a measuring unit for determining a frictional torque of the first bearing unit.
