AUTOMOBILE STEPLESS MECHANICAL TRANSMISSION Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC B60K17/08 F16H29/00 

FIELD: transport engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to stepless mechanical transmission on base of inertia impulse transmission. Proposed transmission consists of input shaft 1 rigidly connected with housing of impulse mechanism 2 mechanically coupling with intermediate shaft 3 in which two overrunning mechanisms are installed, main mechanism 4 and output mechanism 5. Outer race 6 of main overrunning mechanism is connected with transmission case by means of cam clutch 7. Inner clutch member 8 of one of cam clutches is rigidly connected with housing of impulse mechanism. Clutch member 9 of second clutch is rigidly connected with flywheel 10 of output shaft. Outer race 11 of one of cam clutches is arranged on intermediate shaft between housing of impulse mechanism and main overrunning mechanism. Outer clutch member 12 of second cam clutch is installed on intermediate shaft between flywheel of output shaft and main overrunning mechanism. Outer clutch member 12 is rigidly connected with cam clutch 7 of main overrunning mechanism.

EFFECT: provision of transmission of torque from flywheel of output shaft to input shaft and vice versa.
