A variable speed transmission having a plurality of tilting balls (1) and opposing input (34) and output (101) discs is illustrated and described that provides an infinite number of speed combinations over its transmission ratio range. The use of a planetary gear set allows minimum speeds to be in reverse and the unique geometry of the transmission allows all of the power paths to be coaxial, thereby reducing overall size and complexity of the transmission in comparison to transmissions achieving similar transmission ratio ranges.
L'invention concerne une transmission à vitesse variable comprenant une pluralité de billes d'articulation et de disques d'entrée et de sorties opposés. Cette transmission offre un nombre infini de combinaisons sur toute la gamme de rapports de transmission. L'utilisation d'un ensemble train planétaire permet à des vitesses minimales d'être en marche arrière et la géométrie unique de cette transmission permet que toutes les voies de puissance soient coaxiales, ce qui réduit la dimension hors-tout et la complexité de la transmission par rapport aux transmissions accomplissant des gammes de rapports de transmission similaires.
