Intermediate Roller Clutch - Ineffective
Detent Solenoid - De-energized
With the selector lever in any forward range, the
forward clutch is applied. This delivers turbine torque to
the mainshaft and turns the rear internal gear in a
clockwise direction, viewed from front (Converter torque
ratio equals approximately 2:1 at stall).
Clockwise motion of the rear internal gear causes the
rear pinions to turn clockwise, driving the sun gear
counterclockwise. In turn, the sun gear drives the front
pinions clockwise, thus turning the front internal gear,
output carrier and output shaft clockwise in a reduction
ratio of approximately 2.5:1.
Reaction of the front pinions against the front internal
gear is taken by reaction carrier and roller clutch
assembly to the transmission case (Approximate stall
ratio equals 5:1).
Oil Flow
When the selector lever is moved to Drive position, the
manual lever is repositioned to allow line pressure to
enter the drive circuit. Drive oil then flows to the:
1. Forward Clutch
2. 1-2 Shift Valve
3. Governor Assembly
4. 1-2 Accumulator Valve
5. Detent Regulator Valve
Basic Control
Drive oil is directed to the foward clutch where it acts on
two areas of the clutch piston to apply the forward
clutch. The inner area is fed through an unrestricted
passage. The outer area is fed through an orifice to
insure a smooth shift from Park, Neutral and Reverse to
Drive.
Drive oil at the governor assembly is regulated to a
variable pressure. This pressure increases with vehicle
speed and acts against the ends of the 1-2 and 2-3 shift
valves and an area on the modulator valve. This variable
pressure is called governor pressure.
Drive oil is also regulated to another variable pressure at
the 1-2 accumulator valve. This pressure, called 1-2
accumulator oil, is controlled by modulator oil and is
directed to the rear servo. 1-2 accumulator oil at the rear
servo acts on the accumulator piston.
Summary
The converter is filled and the forward clutch is applied.
The transmission is in Drive range - first gear.
