Oscar H. Banker (born Asatour Sarafian; May 31, 1895 – January 1979) was an Armenian American inventor who patented a number of works, including an automatic transmission for automobiles, the needleless , the primary controls of the first Sikorsky helicopter, and power steering. He is considered by some as the "father of automatic transmission." He is accredited as the inventor of the first practical automatic transmission, though Alfred Horner Munro of Canada patented an automatic transmission 14 years before Banker. (Munro's invention relied on the medium of compressed air and therefore lacked power and was never developed commercially.)

  • Оскар Бэнкер (настоящее имя — Асатур Сарафян, 31 мая 1895, Османская империя — январь 1979, Кливленд, США) — американский изобретатель, создатель автоматической коробки передач. Также автор других изобретений и патентов. До Бэнкера были попытки создать АКПП другими инженерами, но они зачастую не развивались в коммерческих целях. Так, изобретение канадского инженера Альфреда Хорнера Манро, запатентовавшего «Автоматическую безопасную трансмиссию» в 1923 г., использовало давление воздуха, а не гидравлическую жидкость, что привело к большому дефициту мощности, а также отсутствовали задняя передача и режим паркинга.
