Abstract
The braking force of a transmission and more especially the transmission of a motor vehicle, in which the torque converter component is used for braking by counter rotation of the turbine may be increased if the pump is not able to rotate freely during braking operation in the direction of rotation caused by the flow circuit in the circuit and is instead kept running at a preselectable speed or speed ratios between the turbine and the pump. In this respect a suitable member is preferably a torque converter with a turbine which is arranged on the radially inner part of the torque converter cross section and through which the flow is axial, its direction of rotation during traction operation being opposite to that of the pump.
