ABSTRACT:
A method is described for filling a fluid friction clutch having a drive and a driven side with sets of clutch plates, whose housing, closed off from the outside, is partially filled to a relatively high degree with a viscous liquid medium as well as a device for practicing such method. To permit precise filling of the fluid friction clutch conformably to its characteristic, the housing of the fluid friction clutch is connected to a filling means delivering a viscous liquid medium. Further, the fluid friction clutch is connected to a drive means generating a drive torque on the drive side and to a torque measuring means gauging the torque transmitted by the clutch on the driven side. Depending on the results of a comparison made during operation of the drive means between the actual value of the torque transmitted and a preassigned target value, the filling means is actuated so as to fill the housing with an amount of fill that will yield the target torque value.
