ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a power transmission apparatus especially for automobiles. It consists of a fluid torque converter coupled with gearing. The gearing includes a first gearing connecting the circulatory turbine to the input shaft and a second gearing connecting the first gearing to the output shaft and to a stationary part. Two unidirectional detents are provided, the first of which acts between the second gearing and a stationary part and the second of which acts between the torque converter reactor and the second gearing. The two detents are in series. Forwards rotation of part of the second gearing drives the reactor in a forwards direction and negative torque on the reactor or said part of the second gearing can act on said stationary part.
