AUTOMATIC INFINITELY VARIABLE GEAR TRANSMISSION Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: transmission comprises housing (1), axially aligned driving (2) and driven (3) shafts, driving (4) and driven (5) central gear wheels, central conical thrust gear wheel (10), carrier (6) with radial axles provided with main satellites (7) and (8) and additional satellites (9), bearing shaft (11) with two cylindrical gear wheels (12) and (13), and intermediate shaft (16). Driving wheel (4), driven wheel (5), and two main satellites (7) and (8) are made of cylindrical gear wheels. Driving wheel (4) and driven wheel (5) are arranged on opposite sides of radial axles of carrier (6). The two wheels of main satellites (7) and (8) are rigidly interconnected through shaft (17) of main satellites to form a single unit. The unit is mounted for permitting rotation on one of the axles of carrier (6) parallel to the axis of the transmission.

EFFECT: simplified design and reduced labor consumption in manufacturing.
