ABSTRACT:
An automatic transmission with overdrive in which a torque converter, an overdrive gear mechanism and an underdrive gear mechanism are separately segmented and are assembled or fastened together by simple devices, such as bolts. To enable this, the dimensions of these components which are associated with coupling portions thereof, such as inner and outer diameters, are designed for standarization. Accordingly, a torque converter and an underdrive gear mechanism of conventional type may be used requiring little or no modification. Additonally, the components are advantageously arranged with the overdrive gear mechanism positioned between the torque converter and the underdrive gear mechanism. The input shaft of the overdrive gear mechanism is splined to the output end of a shaft for the turbine vanes, and is positioned in axial alignment with the input shaft of the underdrive gear mechanism as well as with the shaft for the turbine vanes.
