Abstract:
The aim of the invention is to influence the gear-shifting process preferably in a powershift gearbox. To this end, a hydrodynamic torque converter comprises a clutch located either between the drive motor and the impeller (2) or between the drive motor and the turbine wheel (3), said clutch being operated in a controlled or regulated manner in the slip state according to a torque determined by a torque measuring device (7). Said torque measuring device (7) determines the torque of the turbine wheel (3). In this way, the drive train of a mobile vehicle is controlled in an optimum manner.
