FIELD: mechanical engineering; transmission of torque from engine drive shaft to working machine at high elasticity.
SUBSTANCE: proposed fluid coupling at controllable flow rate has working space formed by pump and turbine wheels to which working medium may be introduced. Working medium inlet hole is located in section of maximum radius of working space. Fluid coupling has housing surrounding the revolving parts; this housing has inlet and outlet holes for working medium.
EFFECT: complete filling of working space at slippage at high torques.
