TORQUE CONVERTER TRANSMISSION Abstract of the Disclosure: An angle drive transmission having an angle drive input shaft and bevel gearset driving an input sleeve shaft rotatably supported on each side of the driven bevel gear by bearings in an end wall and a central wall of the main housing to ground axial thrust to the main housing. The sleeve shaft extends through the end wall and is connected to drive, transmit axial thrust and support the clutch wall of an outboard-mounted rotary torque converter housing. An outboard cover housing has its open end secured to the main housing at the end wall, encloses the rotary housing, and has a central ground member rotatably and axially slidably supporting the impeller wall of the rotary housing. The torque converter has a bladed impeller on the impeller wall, a bladed turbine adjacent the clutch wall connected to drive an output shaft rotatably mounted in the sleeve shaft and connected to transmit axial thrust to the sleeve shaft, and a bladed stator between the impeller and turbine mounted on the ground member. A clutch on the clutch wall, in lock-up, drives the output shaft. A pump supplies fluid by internal central supply passages through the sleeve shaft and output shaft to enter the entrance passage between the turbine and stator to the converter flow-path and exit by an internal central exit passage between the impeller and stator and an outlet passage to a cooler. The torque converter hydrokinetic axial thrust and bevel gear axial thrust are axially opposed and substantially equal to balance thrust load on the sleeve shaft. The torque converter transmits all hydrokinetic thrust to the sleeve shaft in a direction toward the bevel gearset and the bevel gearset has left-hand spherical bevel gear teeth to transmit balancing thrust toward the torque converter.
