Abstract: An oil redirector duct arrangement for a clutch assembly. The oil redirector directs transmission fluid from a radially inner fluid inlet to a radially outer region including clutch plates of a clutch pack. This increases oil flow to the clutch pack to provide proper functioning and durability of the clutch over a wider range of conditions than assemblies that do not include such oil redirector duct configuration. The oil redirector can be implemented in existing transmission assemblies without a change in size or form factor.

Abstract: A torque converter includes a front cover arranged to receive a torque and a lock-up clutch. The lock-up clutch includes a leaf spring, a piston, a first clutch plate, a second clutch plate, and an intermediate clutch plate. The leaf spring includes a base non-rotatably connected to the front cover and two legs extending from the base. The piston is non-rotatably connected to one of the legs. The first clutch plate and the second clutch plate are connected to each other. The first and second clutch plates each being disposed between the piston and front cover. The intermediate clutch plate is disposed between the first and second clutch plates and is non-rotatably connected to the other of the legs.

Abstract: A centrifugal pendulum absorber includes a center plate arranged to receive a torque, a first pendulum connected to the center plate, a second pendulum mass connected to the center plate, and a resilient bumper disposed between the first and second pendulum masses. The first pendulum mass and the second pendulum mass axially bracket the center plate. The resilient bumper is connected to the first and second pendulum masses. The resilient bumper includes a core enclosed by a casing. The core is a metal and the casing is a polymer.

Abstract: A stator for a torque converter is provided. The stator includes a plurality of blades; a stator body supporting the blades and defining an annular recess formed therein; a one-way clutch in the annular recess; and a cover plate holding the one-way clutch in the annular recess. An outer diameter portion of the cover plate is received in a circumferentially extending groove of the stator body to axially fix the cover plate to the stator body.
