PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a compact dual gain friction joint suited for use in a space in a radial direction limited between a torque converter and a transmission of a front wheel drive vehicle, in the transmission. SOLUTION: A fluid pressure operated friction joint provided with a multi- friction disc assembly unit, having a single piston actuator 85 and a first/second spring 94, 104 operationally formed to be arranged so as to selectively engage a first/second set 100, 102 comprising a plate and a friction element in accordance with a pressure applied to the piston actuator, for changing a gain of the joint is indicated. |
