ABSTRACT:
A hydraulic torque impulse generator comprising a rotationally driven drive member (10; 50), a hydraulic fluid chamber (16; 51) confined in the drive member (10; 50), an output spindle (18; 53) having a rear impulse receiving portion (17; 52) extending into the fluid chamber (16; 51), at least two radially slidable vanes (23, 24; 58, 60) carried by the rear spindle portion (17; 52) and cooperating with corresponding seal portions (25, 26; 62, 63, 64) on the fluid chamber wall, axially extending seal ribs (29, 30; 65, 66, 67) on the fluid chamber wall and corresponding axially extending seal ribs (27, 28; 68, 70) on the rear spindle portion (17; 52). Simultaneous sealing cooperation is obtained more than once during each revolution of the drive member (10; 50) relative to the output spindle (18; 52), whereby the fluid chamber (16; 51) is momentarily divided into at least two high pressure compartments (H.P.) and at least two low pressure compartments (L.P.). A first passage mechanism (32-35; 74-78 ) in the drive member (10; 50) cooperates with a second passage mechanism (37, 38; 73) in the output spindle (18;53) to form bypass passages between the high pressure compartments (H.P.) and the low pressure compartments (L.P.) in all but one of the fluid chamber dividing positions, such that only one torque impulse per relative revolution between the drive member (10; 50) and the output spindle (18; 53) is generated.
