Torque converters

Gosh you have up market automatic-transmission washing machines. I've only got to mess with ones with belts!

Seriously, I've never seen one like that. Is it part of the things 'NVH' package or to do with protecting the motor from current overload on start-up? would make the motor quite a bit cheaper I suppose.

Try GM.

If you want only Torque to be converted, Please Specify

• Motor Speed AND HP-and can you mount any position --Vert./Hor. Shaft?
• Torque you need to do a job
• Output Shaft Vertical or Horizontal at which you need that Torque

Correct Planetary Gearbox is always available . I can help.

Try a google search for "fluid coupling"

Try also fluid clutch.

Try also (HYDRAULIC PULLY),also it is used for driving mixer gear box for asphalt plants

Thanks for the input, fellas. I'm not sure what the purpose of the torque converter was on the washing machine. My grandfather gave me the motor and torque converter along with some other things. I'm assuming the motor is probably from and early '80's model machine.

I thought if I could find a supplier for small torque converters such as this, There could be a variety of applications. Personally, I was thinking of using this motor/torque converter setup for a large mixer.
