Abstract: The invention relates to a hydrodynamic coupling. Said coupling comprises a primary wheel (2; 2.2; 2.3) and a secondary wheel (3; 3.2; 3.3), which together form a toroidal working chamber (4; 4.2; 4.3), a shell (5; 5.2; 5.3), which is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the primary wheel and surrounds the secondary wheel in the axial direction and at least partially in the radial direction, thus forming an intermediate chamber (6; 6.2; 6.3) and at least one passage (8; 8.2; 8.3) that is located in the outer radial area of the shell. The invention is characterised by the following features: a second shell (10; 10.2; 10.3) coupled in a rotationally fixed manner to the first shell and/or the primary wheel, thus forming a second intermediate chamber (11; 11.2; 11.3); the second intermediate chamber is connected to the first intermediate chamber via the passage (13; 13.2; 13.
