Title:
FLUID TRANSMISSION DEVICE FOR VEHICLE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2012255486
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide a fluid transmission device for vehicle, which eliminates the need for increasing a plate thickness of a turbine blade or a gap between a pump impeller and the turbine impeller even when tilt angles of the pump blades and the turbine blades relative to the rotation axis become large due to compactification or flattening.

The fluid transmission device for vehicle includes a linking device which suppresses the turbine blades 14 from being tilted to the side of the pump blades 12d by linking a turbine shell with a lock-up piston 16a while allowing a moving stroke of the lock-up piston 16a. The fluid transmission device for vehicle is obtained, which eliminates the need for increasing the plate thickness of the turbine blades 14 or the gap between the pump impeller 12 and the turbine impeller 14 even when the tilt angles of the pump blades 12d and the turbine blades 14d relative to the rotation axis C become large due to the compactification or flattening.
