- the profiles of the rolling tracks 29 are such that the rolling bodies 18 exert on the elastic blades 22 bending forces having radial components and circumferential components.
- the elastic blades 22 exert on the rolling bodies 18 a restoring force having a circumferential component which tends to rotate the rolling bodies 18 in an opposite direction of rotation and thus to recall the turbine wheel 4 and the hub 8 to their relative position resting, and an outwardly directed radial component tending to maintain the rolling tracks 29 resting on the corresponding rolling body 18.
- the elastic blade 22 is prestressed radially towards the axis X so as to exert a reaction force directed radially outwardly, so as to maintain at least one plate 23a, 23b, 23c resting on the corresponding rolling body 18, here the plate 23a.
- the profiles of the raceways 29 can be arranged in such a way that the characteristic curve of transmission of the torque as a function of the angular displacement is symmetrical or not with respect to the rest position.
- the angular displacement can be greater in a direction of rotation said direct, than in a direction of rotation opposite, said retro direction.
- the angular displacement of the cover 1 1 relative to the hub 8 may be greater than 20 ° preferably greater than 40 °.
- the elastic blades 22 are regularly distributed around the X axis and are symmetrical with respect to the X axis so as to ensure the balance of the torque converter.
- the torque converter may also comprise friction means arranged to exert a resistant torque between the cover 1 1 and the hub 8 during their relative deflection so as to dissipate the energy accumulated in the elastic strips 22.
- each elastic blade 22 may vary.
- Each blade 22 can thus be formed of two slats for example.
