HYDRODYNAMIC TORQUE CONVERTER

2004
The aim of the invention is to make it possible to accurately control a clutch which is disposed inside the crankcase of the converter (1) by connecting the crankcase of the converter (1) to a pump wheel. The aim is achieved by the fact that the internal converter pressure acting on the piston (9) of a clutch actuating device (2) is determined by a ...

Hydraulic Couplings and Torque Converters

1982
A fluid flywheel is an hydraulic coupling which is used as an automatic clutch in the transmission system of a vehicle. The unit consists of two main elements, an impeller or driving member and a rotor or driven member. The unit is almost completely filled with fluid.
