Abstract
An infinitely variable cone pulley transmission arrangement which includes a loop or belt arranged to revolve around pairs of pulley discs which define a symmetrical pulley wedge. Each pair of pulley discs is provided with pressure devices which act through an axially slidable pulley disc. The slidable pulley discs are arranged on different sides of the belt or loop. The respective pressure devices are arranged on the same first side of the loop or belt with the slidable pulley disc which is located on the other side of the loop or belt being operatively connected to the associated pressure devices by a servo member which runs axially through the adjacent fixed pulley disc.
Claims5
An infinitely variable cone pulley belt-drive transmission arrangement with a tractive means arranged to revolve around first and second pairs of cone discs having a symmetric pulley wedge, wherein each disc pair has a common shaft and comprises a first cone disc with an extended hub and a second cone disc carried on the extended hub, and wherein on one side of the tractive means there is a pressure means for each disc pair, each pressure means comprising a cylinder and a piston, the cylinder being secured to the respective second cone disc and radially supported on the respective shaft by way of cover means provided on the cylinder and the piston being secured to the hub of the respective first disc, the fist disc of one disc pair being axially slidable on its shaft and the second disc of the said one disc pair being axially fixed to the shaft by its associated cylinder and the first disc of the other disc pair being axially fixed by its hub to its shaft and the second disc of the other disc pair being carried on the shaft in an axially slidable manner by way of its associated cylinder cover means.
