Hello all. I've been fascinated by CVT's for many years. I am glad that there is now a forum devoted to them. One thing I saw recently posted stated that...
Hello, I agree. Take a look at the Toyota Prius CVT. It's not a mechanical CVT. It's a "electric CVT" coupled to a Planetary Gear Set. This is explained on...
* Hi Ken ;-) Thank you for the notice. About it, first instance I think that the variation of the angle of one universal joint, can generate a small...
the variation of the angle of one universal joint, can generate a small pulsation due to the movement of the crosspiece and to the elastic reaction of the ...
* Hi all. ... Please Ken, you could explain me these. The point of discussion is that, I think that the cardan couplings dont produce variatión of force. If...
I think that the cardan couplings dont produce variatión of force. Even better site. http://www.autotune.com/cprotest/cpc12c.html -Ken [Non-text portions of...
Hi, Generaly ratcheting CVTs require some kind of oscilation to operate. The "barloworld-cvt" ( http://www.barloworld-cvt.com/radical_innovation.html ) is a...
* Hi Vitor and all. When thinking that an invention of 400 of antiquity that had a problem since it appeared, I have supposed myself that for its extensive use...
or that somebody had developed some solution in this respect. The solution that is commonly used is to use two of them together, this makes it into a Hooke...
I am an undergraduate student. Now I learn fuzzy logic controller, and I will make a computer simulated controller using CVT as controlled object. I need...

Hi, I've been quite busy. Thus I'm just posting a list of links that I stored previously. Therefore, my apologise as I believe they may no be a great help. ...
* Dear Ken ... Excuses for the late. ... this makes it into a Hooke joint and totally eliminates the problem. The problem is not eliminated since the axis...
... Actually, it is, since by using at least two such joints, you are combining the functions, and as one changes, the other changes at the same rate but in...
* Hello, - the mathematical model of the requirements of changes of force of a motor of internal conbustión to Max acceleration can resemble much to a curve...
* Excuses to all by the late. Dear Ken. In most of the automobiles the disposition of the power train it is so that the universal joint is straight line, and...
I'm in college and I'm making a presentation about the CVT. I need a visual aide for the speech. Since I've chosen the belt and pulley system, I was wondering...
In most of the automobiles the disposition of the power train it is so that the universal joint is straight line, and single angle variation takes place when...
In the interest of knowing about other CVT transmissions, there is a company called torotrak that have developed a slightly different type of CVT. More...
Woah, knock me over with a feather. Hi. My name is Ken Baker and I just now found this site. I had no idea such a thing existed. I'm a design engineer with a...
Gladly; I just corresponded with Vitor Barata, Have you met? Things have been happening so rapidly in the last few hours that I'm losing track of what I've...

* Hi all. The percentage of inefficiency in this case; it goes related directly with the speed to the one that oscillate the joints and one way clutches also...
not with the quantity of force.!!!! I would guess that is correct. But torque loading is bound to play its part, also. The problem of the wear down of the...
