SELF-ADJUSTABLE INFINITELY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: transmission comprises driving and driven shafts, eccentric with groove disk mounted on the eccentric shaft, central gear wheel mounted on the driven shaft and arranged uniformly over the periphery of the gear wheel, which engages the central wheel and free running mechanisms axially aligned to the central wheel. The driving members of the mechanisms are connected with the groove disk. The driven members are connected with the gear wheels through torsion shafts for permitting rotation of the driven members of the free-running mechanisms with respect to the gear wheels within the limits of rotation of the driving members. The driving shaft is made separately from the eccentric shaft. The eccentric shaft has the opening through which the front end of the driving shaft passes to the inlet of the transmission. The driving shaft is provided with gearing clutch which has synchronizing device and provides its independent connection with the eccentric and driven shafts and their disconnection as well.

EFFECT: reduced friction losses.
