Abstract: A spline adapter assembly for connecting a torque converter one-way clutch to a shaft for testing. The spline adapter assembly includes an inner race ring including a radially outer roller body contact surface and a radially inner interface surface, and an adapter having a radially outer interface surface that is complementary to and engaged with the radially inner interface surface of the inner race ring and a radially inner shaft interface surface. The inner race ring of the spline adapter assembly replaces the original inner one-way clutch race ring and can be machined for each assembly being tested in order to provide the proper radially outer roller body contact surface configuration, and is connected to a universal adapter that mates with the test equipment.

Abstract: A core ring for a torque converter is disclosed herein. The core ring includes a plurality of through openings and a plurality of recesses each connected to a respective through opening of the plurality of through openings. The recesses are each dimensioned to receive a portion of a blade, and specifically a blade tip formed on an adjacent torque converter component.
