ABSTRACT:
The operation of a clutch in the power train of a motor vehicle is regulated by an electronic control unit which receives signals from sensors and effects an engagement or partial or full disengagement of the clutch by way of an actuator. One of the sensors can monitor one or more parameters of a gear ratio selecting device for the change-speed transmission in the power train, and another sensor can monitor one or more parameters of an adjusting device which shifts the transmission into a selected gear. The control unit processes the incoming signals to ascertain the selected gear of the transmission and/or the driver's intent to shift the transmission into a particular gear, and operates the actuator for the clutch accordingly.
