Honda's Torque Converter How it Works Honda's innovative Rincon boasts the only true automotive-style automatic transmission in the entire ATV world. The use of a torque converter makes this possible, and the Rincon's torque converter is truly a unique piece of engineering. Many items distinguish the Rincon's torque converter from automotive-style torque converters, but two innovations stand out: An one-way lock-up clutch mechanism, and another system Honda calls "creep control." Honda's Innovative Creep Control System A torque converter transmits torque even when a vehicle is idling, causing some amount of forward motion, or "creep" to occur. In the case of an automobile, creep can add a measure of smoothness when the vehicle begins to move, but it also requires the operator to keep a foot on the brake when the vehicle is stopped in gear. To allow the Rincon to idle in gear without moving forward, Honda's new creep control system detects the idling of the vehicle while it is stationary, and disengages a hydraulic clutch mechanism within the transmission in order to cut creep. In addition, an ECU computes the necessary hydraulic pressure according to throttle position and engine speed in order to engage the clutch gradually. The result: the ability to idle in gear without creep, while maintaining the smooth engagement of power off-idle that torque converters deliver. One-way to Engine Braking Another shortcoming of traditional torque-converters is a lack of engine braking. Because of their power transmission efficiencies, torque converters can only provide a small amount of engine braking, which is not a desirable trait in an ATV. To counter this, Honda engineers designed the Rincon's torque converter with a built-in one-way lock-up clutch--the first time in the world that this construction has been employed. The problem of engine braking has been overcome in some four-wheel drive vehicles with a hydraulically controlled lock-up clutch. However, such systems are immensely complex, large and heavy, and not at all suitable for an ATV. Honda's solution was to incorporate a one-way clutch mechanism for engine braking that transmits power to the crankshaft instead of the torque converter during deceleration. As a result, the Rincon features the same kind of direct engine braking feel as that of ATVs with conventional transmissions. Torque Converter Basics Though it features several innovations that cater specifically to ATV application, the Rincon's torque converter operates in principle much like other torque converters: In the most basic sense, it serves to link the engine to the automatic transmission much like a manual clutch connects an engine to a manual gearbox. Both systems are used to drive a vehicle, and they also come into play when the vehicle stops. With a manual transmission, manual actuation of the clutch serves to temporarily disengage the engine from the transmission when coming to a stop. In similar fashion, a torque converter performs this very important connect/disconnect function between the engine and the transmission, but automatically, as needed. Moreover, with a torque converter and automatic transmission, the rider need only operate one control, the brake, when stopping the vehicle. A torque converter can accomplish this because it is a fluid coupling, rather than a solid coupling. At low engine speeds, the torque converter can slip internally, which allows the engine to spin independently of the transmission. As a result, the engine of the stopped vehicle is allowed to run at an idle while the transmission is in gear. When it's time to roll, the rider simply opens the throttle to increase engine speed, and the torque converter then transfers power to the transmission to make the vehicle move. How is this accomplished? Picture in your mind a pair of electric fans facing each other. Turn on one fan, and the blowing air creates enough force to spin the blades of the second fan-power is transferred. In a similar fashion, a torque converter incorporates a driven impeller to pump a fluid that drives the turbine portion of the torque converter. The driven turbine, in turn, then powers the transmission. In the Rincon, the engine output shaft drives the torque converter's impeller, which uses fins to pump fluid-in this case, engine oil. As this fluid drives the vanes of the torque converter's turbine, the spinning turbine then powers the automatic transmission to propel the vehicle. The Rincon's automatic transmission employs three hydraulic clutches and an electronic control unit (ECU) that automatically selects one of three forward gears (or reverse if reverse is engaged). The ECU monitors throttle opening, vehicle speed, engine speed, gear selector position (if engaged), brake application and engine oil temperature, and processes this information to select the correct drive gear for the appropriate conditions. The other key component within a torque converter is the stator, which redirects fluid flow within the torque converter to create torque multiplication. This occurs when the engine is spinning much faster than the transmission, i.e. when the rider quickly opens the throttle from a standing start--just the time that more pulling power is needed! 2003 Rincon Styling and Design The styling of the new Honda didn't happen by chance, nor did it happen quickly. In fact, oft times the form and face of a landmark new model begins taking shape long before the engineering team launches into development of new hardware. In the case of Honda's innovative Rincon, styling concepts and sketches began taking shape back in 1999, within the top-secret confines of Honda R&D Americas (HRA). There was no Rincon at that time; instead, this internal design study began a life of its own as a series of ideas and sketches aimed at exploring the outer limits of ATV styling and configuration for an undetermined future use. With this project, the overarching direction consciously departed from the pure utility aspect of FourTrax design. More specifically, the design team's goal was to create a high-end ATV with a more refined look, featuring sporty styling that would offer a broader appeal to a wider-than-ever range of recreational riders. To that end, the HRA design team blended a number of innovative elements: a higher fender line for an airy, lighter look; strengthening bumps on the fenders that would also lend a modern and muscular appearance; full integration of bumpers, headlights and taillights to create a smoothly flowing line and style. As one Senior Designer at HRA, explained, "We took the ATV away from a boxy, utility look and found a new balance favoring a distinctly sporty impression. As a parallel, look how Sport Utility Vehicles (SUVs) have evolved in the automotive marketplace over the past decade from a pure utility vehicle to upscale luxury status. Where you once had loggers and surveyors slogging personnel and equipment to the boonies in utility four-wheel-drives, you now have a couple going to the theater or a family driving to the mountains in comfort with their SUVs. In a similar manner, we wanted to create a new upscale kind of ATV. Today there's a large contingent of buyers who have created a new, wider spectrum of recreation applications for ATVs, and we wanted to expand that role. "Our job here at HRA is to push the limits of design, and our ATV internal design study definitely accomplished that goal--which is to say, not every element that we experimented with made it into the final production-model Rincon. However, many of the styling elements that we worked with in sketches and clay mock-ups fit well within the final design. Look at the Rincon and you'll see many of the styling breakthroughs we defined in our design study. The body lines of the Rincon are very integrated, free flowing and refined. Also, elements such as the forged aluminum suspension are not only strong and light, but they also lend a very modern, high-tech appearance. These pieces look like components from an Acura NSX sports car, not an ATV. "The direction we took with our design study matched up perfectly with the new path the Rincon is taking--a blend of recreation and utility use, with the larger emphasis on recreation. Granted, many people may very well end up using this new breed of sport-utility ATVs in work applications, and it's capable of fulfilling that role equally well. However, our goal was to offer a whole new look and new options in order to fulfill the emerging demands of a new market segment. ATV usage is evolving at a record pace, and I think we've helped Honda establish a new leadership position in this area." 2003 FourTrax Rincon Specifications Model: TRX650FA Engine Type: 649cc liquid-cooled OHV semi-dry-sump longitudinally mounted single-cylinder four-stroke Bore and Stroke: 100.0mm x 82.6mm Carburetion: 37mm CV Ignition: CD with electronic advance Starter: Electric with auxiliary recoil Transmission: Automatic with hydraulic torque converter, three forward gears and reverse Driveline: Direct front and rear drive-shafts with torque-sensing limited-slip front differential Suspension Front: Independent double-wishbone; 6.9 inches travel Suspension Rear: Independent double-wishbone; 8.0 inches travel Brakes Front: Triple-sealed hydraulic drum Brakes Rear: Single hydraulic disc Tires Front: 25 x 8-12 radial Tires Rear: 25 x 10-12 radial Length: 83.7 inches Width: 46.1 inches Height: 47.5 inches Seat Height: 34.5 inches Ground Clearance: 10.0 inches Wheelbase: 50.8 inches Turning Radius: 10.8 feet Dry Weight: 600 pounds Fuel Capacity: 4.5 gallons, including 1.0-gallon reserve Colors: Red, Olive MSRP: $N/A Available: OPTIONAL SHIPPING!!!!!!
