ABSTRACT:
A torque converter stator for improved fluid coupling and acceleration is provided. The stator includes a plurality of circumferential long and short blades for increasing torque to an automatic transmission by employing reaction force produced when a flow transmission oil within the torque converter impinges an exterior surface of the blades. The stator utilizes the plurality of circumferential short blades for increasing torque during times a vehicle starting or accelerating and for permitting an obstructed fluid coupling in the turbine and impeller are a coupling point.
