A method of mechanical-hydraulic continuously variable speed, comprising:

• S1:
• inputting motive powers via a power input shaft, and driving loads via a turbine output shaft;
• S2:
• generating eccentricity which enabling a pushing disc to produce eccentricity by a eccentric mechanism when having low transmission ratio and driving the pushing disc to rotate eccentrically by the power input shaft, then driving a driving disc to rotate through slider components, driving a turbine to rotate through the driving disc and outputting powers via a turbine output shaft, at the same time, rotating a pump wheel of hydraulic variable speed components by the power input shaft, and pushing the turbine to rotate through transmission medias so as to take into assistant action of pushing the turbine output shaft to output powers;
• S3:
• when the rotating speed of the turbine and the rotational speed ratio reaching a certain value, resetting the eccentric mechanism and concentering the pushing disc with the driving disc;
• at this time, rotating the pump wheel at high speed by the power input shaft, and also pushing the turbine to rotate at a high speed through the transmission medias, and outputting the powers by the turbine output shaft;
• S4:
• increasing the transmission ratio continuously until the pump wheel and the turbine are locked, and obtaining maximum transmission efficiency.
