ABSTRACT:
A hydrokinetic, multiple-ratio torque converter transmission mechanism having a simplified valve system with variable force solenoids for controlling line pressure as well as ratio shifts, a simplified clutch-and-brake hydraulic circuit with separate fluid pressure feed and exhaust passages, a common accumulator arrangement for controlling each of two ratio upshifts and a simplified brake servo mechanism having the dual function of establishing a torque reaction point for each of two distinct transmission ratios.
