Method for carrying out an automated clutch actuation during non-driven operational phases
First Claim
1. A process for carrying out an automated clutch actuation of a first motor vehicle with a drive engine and a transmission wherein the clutch exhibits both an opened and a closed operating position, and whereintransferring the clutch, by means of automation, into the opened operating position introduces unpowered phases wherein there is no power transferred from the drive engine to the transmission and, transferring the clutch by means of automation into the closed operating position introduces power operating phases, wherein power is transferred from the drive engine to the transmission wherein a distance to a second motor vehicle driving ahead is determined and the operating position of the clutch depends on said distance.

Abstract
The invention relates to a process for carrying out an automated clutch actuation of a motor vehicle with a drive engine and a transmission, connected to said drive engine by way of a clutch, in which process the clutch exhibits both an opened and a closed operating position, whereby to introduce unpowered operating phases the clutch is transferred by means of automation into the opened operating position and to introduce powered operating phases it is transferred by means of automation into the closed operating position.
To design such a process more reliably and comfortably, the variables, from which a dangerous situation in time or its termination can be concluded with a certain probability, are measured, according to the invention, so that the clutch can be moved into an operating position (opened or closed), which makes it possible to carry out faster the subsequent request of the driver—such as an acceleration request or a braking request.
