摘要:
A continuously variable transmission comprises a sun wheel (11, 66) and at least one planet wheel (3, 65) having a double, essentially conical surface (30, 31, 64, 71, 72), which planet wheel (3, 65) interacts on one side with the sun wheel (11, 66) and on the other side with an annulus wheel (2, 73), as well as adjusting structure (5, 6, 16) for changing the transmission ratio. Each planet wheel (3, 65) is provided with an intermediate wheel (9, 59) which interacts on one side with the sun wheel (11, 66) and on the other side with the planet wheel (3, 65). Each planet wheel (3, 65) and, where appropriate, intermediate wheel (9, 59) is also adjustable about an imaginary axis which runs transversely to the centre line of the sun wheel (11, 66), such that each planet wheel (3, 65) can be brought into positions with respect to the annulus wheel (2, 59) in which they can roll with respect to one another so as to describe a helical path. As a result, the planet wheel (3, 65) and the sun wheel are given a different position with respect to one another in the axial direction, which produces a different transmission ratio.

A stepless speed changing apparatus is disclosed that has movable bodies to move in the radial direction of an input shaft, wherein stepless speed reduction is achieved with a simple configuration by converting the movement of the movable bodies into the movement of a speed change ring, and is capable of setting an appropriate mode of changing output, rotational speed and providing such a characteristic that the output rotational speed changes in the reverse manner to the change of the input rotational speed.

A transmission comprises a rotary input member, a rotary output member and a housing. Disposed in the housing is at least one rolling member such as a ball for transmitting a rotary movement between the rotary input and output member. The rolling member is arranged between at least first and second substantially circular tracks forming a gap that decreases in the peripheral direction. The rolling member is held in contact at a drive rolling radius with the one track and at a driven rolling radius with the other track, in the decreasing gap, by a positive-action guide.

A reversing drive mechanism is described for use in a mechanical drive system. The drive mechanism includes a drive bearing which is movable between two positions. In one position the bearing is able to transmit the rotational motion of the input shaft directly to an output shaft. In another position the bearing is able to reverse the rotational motion of the input shaft and transmit it to the output shaft to drive it in a direction opposite to the input shaft. The reversing drive mechanism has utility in a variety of applications.
摘要:
A transmission having a variator drive capable of being placed in a continuously variable operating mode or an infinitely variable operating mode, capable of having a wide ratio range, and capable of integrating a clutching capability within the transmission. The variable transmissions can be operated in at least two different operating modes, depending on an engagement status of the clutches therein. Methods of running the variable transmissions and drivelines that incorporate such variable transmissions are provided.
