    摘要: Control system for a continuously variable transmission with a first and a second pair of conical sheaves each with adjustable running radius, in which of each pair at least one sheave (14a, 14b) is coupled to a first and a second hydraulic actuator (20a, 20b) respectively which sets the axial sheave position in dependence of the amount of hydraulic medium supplied thereto, in which the actuators are connected with means to supply and discharge thereto/therefrom respectively, hydraulic medium, and one actuator is connected to a source of hydraulic pressure medium, and in which furthermore the first and second actuator respectively is connected with a first and second control chamber (60, 124) respectively, filled with hydraulic medium and having a variable control volume, in such a way that an increase of the first control volume is coupled to a decrease of the second control volume, and vice versa.
