A torque wrench structure comprising a reduction gear train within a case. The gear train includes an input shaft with an end accessible at the exterior of the case and an output shaft, a work engaging part at the exterior of the case concentric with the output shaft and coupling structure drivingly coupling the work engaging part with the output shaft. A reaction part with a body portion having a central opening freely accommodating said coupling structure is positioned adjacent the case. A plu...

A torque converter for an automatic transmission includes a turbine having the vanes thereof retained by tabs which fit into fluid-tight recesses formed in the housing of the turbine.

This wrench comprises an outer body (2) of elongate shape in which the head (1) of the wrench is articulated about a pivot (12); a plunger (3) that can move axially in the outer body and is urged towards the head by a preloaded spring (4); and at least a first rolling body (22) intended to reduce friction as the plunger moves. The rolling body (22) is a cylindrical roundel whose peripheral surface rolls on the one hand along a first flat track (16) secured to the outer body and which is pressed ...

A torque machine, for making or breaking screw-threaded joints between lengths of pipe, includes a rotatable head having an aperture into which a length of pipe is introduced, the rotatable head including a number of tongs which are spaced apart around the aperture and can be moved inwardly to grip the length of pipe. A separate jaw collar is provided for location between the tongs and the pipe, the collar comprising a number of part-annular sectors which are connected by springs or elastic link...

A torque converter comprises a pump having a pump shell and impellers; a turbine having a turbine shell and runners; a stator arranged between the pump and the turbine and is supported by the housing; and an operation fluid filled in the pump and in the turbine. Transmission torque limit means is arranged between the stator and the housing to so limit the transmission of torque transmitted to the stator as will not to increase in excess of a predetermined value.

A torque sensor has a housing which has a light source and a measuring shaft which has a signal generator arrangement belonging to a rotation angle sensing device with a processing The rotation angle sensing device is arranged to rotate relative to the housing, together with the measuring shaft, and the processing device has an opto-electric power supply device.

A torque tool comprises a torque converter, a power tool for actuating the converter and an attachment adapter, interposed between the torque converter and the power tool, for coaxially and firmly interconnecting the former to the latter. The power tool, having its chuck removed, includes, at its front part, an outwardly extending shaft of tubular configuration incorporating a dead hole of hexagonal cross-section. The torque converter includes several coaxially successive planetary gear assembli...

A torque converter includes: a impeller having an outer shell, an inner core, and at least one pump blade provided between the outer shell and the inner core; a turbine having at least one turbine blade; and a stator capable of establishing a fluid circulation between the impeller and the turbine. An exit angle of the at least one pump blade is greater than -90 degrees up to -68 degrees at the most, beginning from a first point, at which the at least one pump blade is in contact with the outer s...

A torque sensor 1 is provided with two shafts 3, 4 (input shaft 3 and output shaft 4) which constitute a shaft member 2, which is a torque detection object, an elastic member 5 which connects the shafts 3 and 4 coaxially, and a torsion angle of the elastic member 5 is detected as a torque which affects on the shaft member 2. The torque sensor 1 is provided with a hard magnetic member 6 which generates a magnetic flux therearound, a pair of first soft magnetic members 7, 8 which constitute a firs...

A torque converter 1 is a device for transmitting torque by fluid, and includes a front cover 14, an impeller 18, a turbine 19, and a stator 20. The impeller 18, the turbine 19 and the stator 20 constitute a fluid operating chamber 6 having a torus shape. Flattening (L/D1) is less than or equal to 0.18, wherein D1 is an outer diameter of the fluid operating chamber 6 and L is the axial direction length of the fluid operating chamber 6. In the impeller shell 22, a surface 22a on which the impelle...
