摘要： The present invention generally comprises a modular unit having a stator and a clutch for a torque converter, wherein the modular unit contains a first and a second half for a stator, which first and second half are in each case formed by a first and a second individual part. The blades for the stator are arranged within corresponding rings for the first and the second half. The modular unit also contains a one-way clutch. The first and the second halves have inner peripheral parts which are designed so as to form a part of the clutch. The modular unit contains a disc which is moveable in the axial direction and is connected to a hub. The disc and a peripheral part are arranged functionally in such a way as to form a part of the clutch. According to some aspects, the disc and the peripheral part are arranged so as to latch into one another, and the modular unit contains a movement element which is arranged so as to press the disc against the peripheral part. According to some aspects, the disc and the hub are formed from a single part, or the disc can be moved in the axial direction with respect to the hub.
