TORQUE CONVERTER OUTLINE

  1. The torque converter clutch mechanism mechanically engages the pump impeller and the turbine runner under a specified condition, and transmits the power, not through the fluid, but directly, preventing the slip loss of the torque converter.
  2. The torque converter has obtained sufficient transaxle efficiency and torque converting ratio that matches the output characteristic of each engine.

TORQUE CONVERTER STRUCTURE

  1. The torque converter with the TCC control consists of the turbine runner, pump impeller, stator, and the TCC piston as shown in the figure. The TCC piston engages with the turbine runner and slides on the turbine hub to be pushed and contacts with the torque converter cover during the TCC control operation. In the TCC piston, a spring for torsion damper is installed to absorb the engine torque fluctuation during TCC control.
