Your engine connects to your transmission at a place called a bell housing. The bell housing contains a torque converter for automatic transmission-equipped vehicles as opposed to a clutch on manual vehicles. The torque converter is a fluid coupling whose job it is to connect your engine to your transmission and thus to your driven wheels. The transmission contains planetary gearsets which are in charge of providing different gear ratios.

Modern automatic transmissions can trace their origins to an early “horseless carriage" gearbox that was developed in 1904 by the Sturtevant brothers of Bostom, Massachusetts.
