Abstract
A torque transmitting mechanism for a transmission includes a first and a second rotating member, a rotating piston, a stationary piston, and a first bearing. The rotating piston is rotatably connected to the first rotating member and includes a splined end. The stationary piston is disposed in a stationary housing of the transmission. The stationary piston and the stationary housing form a hydraulic fluid piston apply chamber. The first bearing is disposed between the rotating piston and the stationary piston. The splined end of the second rotating member is axially aligned and configured to engage with the splined end of the rotating piston.
