Abstract
An electronically controlled hydraulic clutch includes a driveshaft and drive disc which is mounted thereon and rotates in a working chamber of a housing which is rotatably mounted on the driveshaft. The housing has in addition a reservoir chamber which is divided off from the working chamber by a dividing wall and which is connected in terms of flow to the working chamber via a valve opening and a return channel. The valve opening is controlled via a valve lever which is actuated by an electromagnet which is mounted in a fixed manner so as to be capable of rotating on the housing, and the electromagnet is arranged within the reservoir chamber.
