A strut for a rocker one-way clutch comprising: a body having: a center point; an outer circumferential edge having a first radius with respect to the center point; and, an inner circumferential edge having a second radius with respect to the center point; and, a retention segment having: a neck portion directly connected to the body and extending from the body in a first direction; and, a spring retention portion extending from the neck portion. Also discloses is a rocker one-way clutch comprising: an axis of rotation; an outer race including at least one pocket; an inner race; a strut as above, wherein the body is at least partially locatable in the pocket.

A hybrid module includes a rotor carrier having an axially extending portion and a radially extending portion; and a torque converter assembly arranged radially inside of the axially extending portion. The torque converter assembly includes: an impeller having an impeller shell non-rotatably connected to the axially extending portion; a turbine in fluid communication with the impeller and having a turbine shell arranged axially between the impeller and the radially extending portion; and a lock-up clutch. The lock-up clutch includes a plurality of clutch plates, a clutch plate carrier connected to at least some of the plurality of clutch plates, and a piston axially slidable along the clutch plate carrier to engage the plurality of clutch plates. The clutch plate carrier is non-rotatably connected to the turbine shell. An apply chamber is bounded in part by the turbine shell, the piston, and the clutch plater carrier.

A launch device for coupling the rotary output of a prime mover to the rotary input of a driven device. The launch device includes a containment vessel defining a chamber. A driving element, located within the chamber and being rotatable relative to the containment vessel, is configured to be coupled to the output of the prime mover, while a driven element, also located within the chamber and being rotatable relative to the containment vessel, is configured to be coupled to the input of the driven device. The driven element is fluidically coupled to the driving element and is rotationally driven thereby during rotation of the driving element by the prime mover.

A compact P2 hybrid module for connecting an internal combustion engine to a transmission of a vehicle. The P2 module includes an input shaft, an electric motor having a stator and a rotor, a torque converter having a front cover and a rear cover. The torque converter further including an impeller and a turbine coupled to one another so as to form a hydrodynamic circuit, and the turbine being further coupled to an output member of the torque converter. The front cover of the torque converter being rotationally fixed with the rotor of the electric motor. An electric connect/disconnect friction clutch assembly having first and second sets of friction plates. The first and second sets of friction plates being rotationally lockable with one another during engagement of the electric connect/disconnect friction clutch assembly. An electro-mechanical controllable clutch assembly having an input member and an output member.

An architecture for coupling an output member from a prime mover to an input member of a device to be driven. The architecture includes a torque transfer device defining an indirect coupling for transferring torque therethrough, a direct drive connection member providing a direct coupling for transferring torque therethrough, and a dynamically controllable clutch that selectively and rotationally drives either the torque transfer device or the direct drive connection member. The torque transfer device is rotatably disconnected from the dynamically controllable clutch and undriven when the dynamically controllable clutch is driving the direct drive connection member.
