Patent

CA 2316145

A torque converter TC is constituted having an impeller 11, a turbine 12, a stator 13, a converter cover 11a, which covers the back side of the turbine, and is connected to the impeller, and a lock-up mechanism, which couples and uncouples the impeller and turbine. The lock-up mechanism comprises a lock-up piston 15, which is arranged by being linked to the turbine inside a space enclosed by the converter cover 11a, and lock-up is performed by the lock-up piston mating under pressure to the inner surface of the converter cover due to oil pressure inside a lock-up fastening chamber 17, which is enclosed by the lock-up piston and the back side of the turbine in a space enclosed by the converter cover. In the outer shell 12b of the turbine 12, there are formed a deceleration communication-hole 18, and a slow acceleration communication-hole 19, which open facing flows of hydraulic fluid generated inside the turbine at the time of deceleration and slow acceleration, and link together the inside of the turbine and the lock-up fastening chamber.
