Vitor: Any vacuum line to act as a diaphragm? No vacuum lines. Or is this engine-load information measured/controlled by the pre loaded torque spring"? Great...
hi, Some people might be intrested in the next site: http://www.tribology-abc.com/sub8.htm and choose the metal V belt calculator. This site was setup by a...
I would appreciate if anyone could tell me the resources where I can find limitations of current CVT design (esp. those of metal-belt & chain). Please reply at...
Thanks! I emphasize the "Metal V-belt" calculator: http://www.tribology-abc.com/calculators/e3_5.htm ...and for the "Hertz rolling with traction" calculator: ...
Vitor: Thank you for taking the time and having the insight to find these pictures. A picture is worth at least a thousand of my words. I am curious why the...
Just a note to let you know that the new IVPD site www.ivpd.com may temporarily be off line until the DNS servers are recognized.. The original site...

Hi Elis670, 1.SMALL CVT Perhaps you could use a Zero-Max drive for the RC car. Depending on your requirements you could design/build a centrifugal automatic ...

Does anyone know more on this IVT invented by Mr. Doug Magyari? <<... What he will say is that his "infinitely variable transmission," or IVT as he calls it,...
The needles either side of center contact will have to bend because the velocity won't be right for them going the same speed. Velcro might work better. James...

About the Magyari - I've pulled up the Magyari IVT - I like it, but I'm concerned with it's durability. It sort of reminds me of those dartboards where the...
I think the shock loads on the 'needles' would be VERY high, and I cannot imagine right off any way to make it so that that problem would go away.-Ken I think...
Antonio, must thank you for your prompt help in patent searching and for sending us the images. This CVT looks like those inventions that are almost perfect in...
Mr Magyari admits that his "needles" will be subject to 'flexure' and will need lubricant not only against friction but for purposes of cooling as well. The...
I have thought of a problem with this approach. Suppose the needles are transfering force, sin = along the axis cosin = not along the axis. The non axis force...
Hi Vitor If anyones interested, here is the variator part of what we are building. The thing will be running on an 800kW dyno by august and should handle 380kW...

Bill, May we do something like a jump from the "infinitely big" (Infinity Drive's 380kw) down to the "infinitely small", almost as your MoBike's 1.5 hp...
I looked at the picture but can't tell what's on the inside. Is this a Motion Technologies type drive? If not, what type is it? James...

Hi James The only thing I know about the Motion Technologies drive is that it is a toroidal type. If that is the type you mean, then no, it is not a Motion ...
