ABSTRACT:
A hydrokinetic torque converter includes an impeller housing and a bypass clutch located within the impeller housing. The impeller cover has welded to it a clutch plate, which is connected by a splined connection to a clutch piston rotatably supported on a turbine rotor. A drive ring carries friction surfaces adjacent the clutch piston and clutch plate. The drive ring extends axially into engagement with a helical spring carried in a damper assembly arranged in series with the damper between the impeller cover and the input shaft of the transmission.
