MECHANISM FOR STEPLESS AUTOMATIC CONTROLLING OF GEAR RATIO Russian patent published in 1994 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering. SUBSTANCE: mechanism has variator made of driving shaft 1 provided with an extensible pulley and intermediate shaft 4 with a pulley of constant diameter. Both pulleys are interconnected through wedge-shaped belt. Intermediate shaft 4 is a driving shaft of the mechanism for creating reactive moment simultaneously. The mechanism consists of driven (output) shaft 9 mounted within the case, carrier 10 pivotally mounted on driven shaft 9 by the first end, and gear wheels 7,8 set on intermediate shaft 4 and driven shaft 9 correspondingly. EFFECT: improved design. 2 dwg
