Abstract

A clutch actuating apparatus for a double clutch transmission, may include an operation rod that constructs an operation stroke for engaging a clutch while moving straight, an electric power unit that generates a rotational force, a straight converting unit that converts the rotational force of the electric power unit into a straight movement force for moving straight the operation rod, a supplement force supplying unit for increasing the straight movement force of the operation rod and removing increased straight movement force in accordance with whether the operation rod engages or disengages the clutch, a rod locating unit that changes a position of the operation rod relative to the straight converting unit, and a housing that accommodates the straight converting unit and the supplement force supplying unit and covers the operation rod with a portion exposed to the outside.
