Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
90 words
A HYDROKINETIC POWER TRANSMISSION MECHANISM COMPRISING A BLADED IMPELLER, A BLADED TURBINE AND A BLADED STATOR SITUATED IN TOROIDAL FLUID FLOW RELATIONSHIP, MEANS FOR INHIBITING ROTATION OF SAID STATOR IN ONE DIRECTION WHILE ACCOMMODATING FREEWHEELING MOTION THEREOF IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION, A STATOR SPEED SENSITIVE VALVE ASSEMBLY CONNECTED TO A MOVABLE PORTION OF SAID STATOR, A SOURCE OF PRESSURE, AND FLUID PRESSURE PASSAGE MEANS INTERCONNECTING SAID PRESSURE SOURCE AND SAID VALVE ASSEMBLY, SAID VALVE ASSEMBLY RESPONDING TO ROTATION OF SAID STATOR TO CREATE A PRESSURE SIGNAL IN SAID PASSAGE MEANS.
