<p>The stageless, hydrostatic torque converter, particularly for use in automotive applications, incorporates a fluid motor controlled by a circulating piston pump activated by a pressure medium. The pump delivery volume is varied by altering the eccentricity of the piston relatively to the pump cylinder surrounding it. A slotted control rail (3) is swivelable around a fixed rotary axis (4), and has various sections (3a, b, c, d) of varying length and/or rise and/or curvature. In its slot, a head (5) of a control bar (7) - adjustable by a pre-selector lever (8) - engages, the bar free and being connected to the control device for alteration of the rotary piston's eccentricity and the variation of the press. medium's activation of the circulating piston pump.</p> |
