AUTOMATIC INFINITELY VARIABLE MECHANICAL TRANSMISSION Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC F16H33/14 

FIELD: mechanical engineering; transport engineering; machine-tool industry.

SUBSTANCE: proposed transmission includes drive shaft 1 and driven shaft 2, drive gear wheel 3 and driven gear wheel 4, carrier with radial shafts 7, main satellites 5 and 6, additional satellite 8 which are mounted on carrier radial shafts 7, flywheel 17, balancing weight 19, bearing wheel 9 mounted on dive shaft for rotation relative to it and provided with two gear rims 14 and 15. Gear rim 14 is thrown into engagement with additional satellite 8 and gear rim 15 is thrown into engagement with intermediate wheel 11 of bearing wheel drive. Bearing wheel drive has main wheel 10 and intermediate wheel 11 whose axle 12 is mounted in transmission body 13 beyond 0-0 line of transmission. Drive and driven wheels are mounted on opposite sides from radial shafts.

EFFECT: extended range of control of transmitted torque and rotational speed of driven shaft depending on loading.
