Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
In a hydraulic transmission apparatus, a lockup piston of a lockup clutch mechanism is placed on the opposite side of first and second friction plates from a sidewall portion of a front cover. A damper device is placed on the opposite side of the lockup piston from the first and second friction plates. An outer peripheral portion of the lockup piston is located closer to the outer periphery than an outer peripheral portion of a flange member. A part of the lockup piston is placed in a region located between first and second springs and a third spring of the damper device in a radial direction and in the range of an axial width of the third spring located closer to the lockup piston.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A starting apparatus comprising: a clutch configured to transmit power between an input member and an input shaft of a transmission apparatus and configured to disrupt a power transmission between the input member and the input shaft; and a damper having an outer peripheral-side spring and an inner peripheral-side spring, which are both disposed so as to provide a dampening between the clutch and the input shaft of the transmission apparatus, wherein…
