摘要:Electronic Clutch modification is for use by disabled drivers who prefer the control offered by a manual transmission but have difficulty operating the clutch pedal. The Device provides the driver with fingertip control of the clutch, removing the need for use o f the left leg to perform gear changes. It is suitable for amputees or paraplegics, among others, especially in the case where an automatic model of a vehicle is not available. By mounting the device on the gear stick, this modification allows the d river to operate the clutch with the left hand to make smooth gear changes. It replaces the original gear knob and incorporates a finger operated trigger lever and button. The aluminum trigger controls the clutch, with the p edal moving proportionally. A handy switch provided with gear shift lever will operate a motor to control the functions of hydraulic cylinders by means of relay and two sensor switches. Hence fluid pressure produces in the hydraulic cylinder force the piston against spring force. This directing the clutch to engage and disengage for which fluid line will be should short circuited. This mechanism is unique in nature trouble free, cost effective and smart for its perfection.
