Torque converter that is in torque converter drive (1) Rotating housing (2) Turbine (3) Impeller (4) Drive gear for the torque converter and transmission gear pump (5) Outlet passage for torque converter oil (6) Output shaft (7) Carrier (8) Inlet passage for torque converter oil (9) One-way clutch (10) Lockup clutch (11) Hub (12) StatorThe engine flywheel turns rotating housing (1) which turns impeller (3) . The impeller directs the oil to the blades of turbine (2) . This will cause the turbine to turn. The turbine directs the oil to stator (12) . This causes the stator to try to turn in the opposite direction of the turbine. The movement of the stator causes the rollers of one-way clutch (9) to move between stator (12) and the carrier for the stator. The action of the one-way clutch keeps the stator from rotation. The stator now directs most of the oil back to impeller (3) . The remainder of the oil goes out of the torque converter through outlet passage (5) . The oil, that goes back to impeller (3) from stator (12) , moves in the same direction as the rotation of the impeller.Turbine (2) turns hub (11) . Hub (11) turns output shaft (6) . Power is sent through the output yoke to the drive shaft and the transfer gears of the transmission.One-Way Clutch

(12) Stator (13) Race (14) Cam for the one-way clutch (15) Rollers (16) Cage (17) Springs (18) Slot (19) Cam surfaceThe one-way clutch functions in order to keep the stator stationary up to higher torque converter output speeds. Stator (12) is connected to the cam (14) through splines. As a result, stator (12) rotates with cam (14) , and race (13) is stationary. Roller cage (16) is located between cam (14) and race (13) . Spring (17) is partially inserted in a tab at the top and at the bottom of cage (16) . At lower turbine speeds, spring (17) forces the tab of cage (16) to the right in slot (18) . This forces roller cage (16) to rotate clockwise. Then, rollers (15) move against the surfaces (19) of cam (14) . The rollers wedge between cam (14) and race (13) . This action locks stator (12) to race (13) which is stationary. The stator then returns oil to the impeller which multiplies the torque output of the torque converter.As the speed of turbine (2) approaches the speed of impeller (3) , the force of hydraulic oil overcomes the force of the
