Abstract
A continuously variable transmission includes a set of pulleys mounted on respective pulley shafts (35, 36) and mounted with an endless transmission element for transmitting rotational movement from one pulley to the other, whereby the pulleys are incorporated in the transmission pre-mounted on an common support plate (22). The transmission thereby is provided with a favorable produced housing.
Claims15
Continuously variable transmission comprising a set of pulleys mounted on respective pulley shafts (35, 36) and mounted with an endless transmission element (3) for transmitting rotational movement from one pulley to the other, characterised in that the pulleys are incorporated in the transmission mounted on an common support plate (22).
Continuously variable transmission according to any of the proceeding claims, characterised in that the primary shaft (10) is provided with a gear wheel (39) meshing with an input gear (38).
Continuously variable transmission according to any of the proceeding claims, characterised in that the transmission is support by a second supported plate (23) supporting both transmission shafts (35, 36).
Continuously variable transmission according to any one of the preceding claims, characterised in that the transmission (2) is surrounded by, and preferably mounted to/in a transmission housing enclosing the transmission (2).
Continuously variable transmission, according to any of the preceding claims, characterised in that the housing (1, 1a)consists of a first and a second part, one of which circumferentially surrounds the transmission (2) over it's full axial width and at one axial end, whereas the other part forms a lid to said major housing part, preferably produced with supporting parts for supporting at least one shaft (35, 26, 11) of the transmission (2).
Constant frequency electrical generator (8, 2) driven by, and/or incorporated into a continuously variable transmission according to any of the previous claims.
