Hydrodynamic machine for transmitting torques

Abstract

The invention relates to a hydrodynamic machine for transmitting torque. Said machine is equipped with the following features: a rotor-blade wheel (2); a stator-blade wheel (3); when viewed in a cylindrical cut, the blades (2.1, 3.1) are embodied and disposed as follows: they extend in planes which are inclined towards the axis (1.1) of the machine; they are substantially aligned relative to one another; they are angled with the purpose of forming a tip (2.6, 3.6). In order to reduce losses due to shock and to enhance efficiency, at least the flow areas of the edge of the blades are angled on both sides, when viewed in a cylindrical cut, so that the tip is located between the lateral limiting surfaces (2.3, 2.4. 3.3, 3.4) of the corresponding blade.
