Abstract:
A torque converter comprises a cover arranged to receive torque, an impeller including an impeller shell fixed to the cover, and a turbine fluidly coupled to the impeller. A lock-up clutch is provided that includes a dam plate non-rotatably connected to the cover, and a piston plate disposed, at least partially, between the cover and the dam plate. A fluid diversion plate is disposed between the dam plate and the turbine, wherein the dam plate is connected to the piston plate on a first axial side and connected to the fluid diversion plate on a second axial side, opposite the first axial side, via a single connector.
