Abstract
Disclosed herein is a system for releasing a clutch through clutch cables in an automobile having an engine which is connected to a clutch housing containing a clutch release fork and a clutch pedal. The clutch cables comprise an outer cable which is located forwardly of an exhaust pipe of the engine and an inner cable which extends longitudinally through the outer cable. The outer cable is secured to the body of the automobile and to the engine at one end and at the other end respectively, while the inner cable is connected to the clutch pedal and to the clutch release fork at one end outwardly extending from the one end of the outer cable and at the other end outwardly extending from the other end of the outer cable respectively. By virtue of this construction, the outer cable is protected from the high temperature of the exhaust pipe, and there is no relative displacement between the other end of the outer cable and the inner cable when the clutch is not worked.
