Abstract

Described herein is a hydraulic servo for a friction coupling element of an automatic transmission, which is mounted in association with a one-way clutch and which has reduced dimensions in radial and axial directions. The hydraulic servo essentially comprises: an annular drum splined with a sleeve portion of the inner race of the one-way clutch and arranged to receive the reaction of the one-way clutch by a fixed member in the automatic transmission case; a piston fitted in the annular drum; and a return spring mounted in the drum for returning the piston.
