ABSTRACT:
A hydrodynamic drive and slipping clutch arranged in parallel drive relation to provide a controlled slip input drive to a mechanical gear arrangement. The clutch slip is controlled by a passage having a variable opening responsive to the torque transmitted by the hydrodynamic drive to split the input torque so as to limit the torque transmission through the hydrodynamic drive. The clutch transmits the remainder of input torque from the prime mover to the gearing.
