| 7533526 | Drive arrangement A drive arrangement for driving, or for being driven by, a fluid is disclosed. The drive arrangement comprises a rotatable member (40) for receiving the fluid, and having mounted thereon a plurality of drive members (56). The drive members (56) ... | 05/19/2009 |
| 7198142 | Machine unit comprising a drive and a machine The invention relates to a high power machine unit. Said invention is characterized by the following features: a drive which has an output shaft; a machine which has a drive shaft; a converter (3) which is connected between drive and machine and can be filled... | 04/03/2007 |
| 6993903 | Stator blade mounted in a torque converter The present invention is related to a blade of a stator, where a passage is formed in the blade of a conventional stator which constitutes a torque converter and thereby generates stable torque and prevents sag in the stall state and at low speed ratios. The present... | 02/07/2006 |
| 5307629 | Variable pitch stator with passive control A three element fluid torque converter has a variable pitch stator. The stator blades have two principal orientations, closed and open. The blades are biased toward the closed position by a spring loaded annular piston. In the closed position, the blades ... | 05/03/1994 |
| 5263319 | Efficient variable pitch stator with passive control A three element fluid torque converter has a variable pitch stator. The stator blades have two principal orientations, closed and open. The blades are biased toward the closed position by a spring loaded annular piston. In the closed position, the blades ... | 11/23/1993 |
| 4848084 | Hydrodynamic torque converter having variable stator plate orifice A hydrodynamic torque converter includes a pump wheel, a turbine wheel, and a stator wheel having a variable entrance between the blade rows upon at least one of these wheels, preferably on the stator wheel. The opening between the blades is adjustable au... | 07/18/1989 |
| 4377068 | Stator for a hydrodynamic torque converter A stator construction for hydrodynamic torque converters with the stator construction including a plurality of stator blades fixedly arranged on a supporting hub. A supporting hub is adapted to be non-rotatably fixed in a reactionary direction of rotation... | 03/22/1983 |
