ABSTRACT:
An assembly, or device, for measuring the end play in the bearing of a turbine hub of a torque converter in which the turbine hub is provided with a bore therethrough and the turbine is enclosed within a casing, the casing being provided with a single opening in one side thereof having a hollow hub extending outwardly from and about said casing opening, the axis of the opening in the casing hub being in alignment with the bore in the turbine hub, the measuring assembly or device being provided with a base portion having a flat upper surface, and an under surface parallel with the upper surface, the base being provided with an aperture whose side wall extends upwardly from the upper surface of the base, a spindle slideable through the aperture in the base and of such length as to extend through the hollow hub of the casing and in engagement with the bore in the turbine hub for moving the turbine in the measuring operation, the means engaging the turbine bore being of cone shape and extending outwardly from the spindle, the smaller end of the cone adapted to extend into the bore and the larger end of the cone adapted to engage the outer peripheral edge of the bore, the spindle further being provided with means for measuring the movement of the spindle after the upper end of the spindle is in contact with the bore of the turbine hub, means being provided for releasably fixing a measuring gauge to the spindle below the under surface of the base and means connected with the gauge for engaging the under surface of the base for operating the gauge when the spindle is moved relative to the base.
