A quick search for patents by Cosworth didn't give anything on turbo compound engines. Mainly casting methods and a closed cycle engine for submarine use. So...
... Clutch trans? Or maybe a link to a description? As a back thought I remember that the McCullough Centrifical Supercharger and probably the Paxton too used...
Thanks for the espacenet reference. I wouldn't have found it myself. The unit shown there is a traction drive, with offset input and output shafts. Gaeatech...
From: "perfectlyhydraulic" Date: Mon Dec 6, 2004 7:45 pm Subject: Re: GaeaTech CVT ...Regarding geared CVT's, does anyone have further information on the ...
I disagree that the concept will not produce a variable CVT. I think the problem is in how the tilt mechanism is geared directly to the ring gear. In theory,...
I have a dilemma; I am trying to figure out how to put a turboshaft jet engine in a car. In order for this to work I must be able to set the throttle to...
I think the only option available for the precise control needed and the HP of the turbin is an electric solution.-Ken I have a dilemma; I am trying to figure...
Ken, the Hydristor will do this in spades. I am currently negotiating for a 20,000 hp, 25,000 Rpm Hydristor for a natural gas fired 15 megawatt generator and...
If your design can handle the HP and RPM, it may be able to fill the need, but as it has not yet proven itself in such an application, while the electic type...
I just got my first purchase order from a major corporation for a 90 Hp diesel application. Next week, I will get my second PO for a bicycle application from a...
Hi all, been reading past posts and following all the links on the site hoping to get the information I am looking for. So far I haven't been too lucky. The...
... Have you looked at the Hondamatic CVT? It is hydrostatic. I haven't been able to find the HP capacity, but it is driven by a 499 cc engine in the Rubicon...
... So your hydraulic launch thing with the Hydristor can be retrofitted to a manual transmission car too? Will it still perform like you would want a manual ...
... Could you satisfy my curiosity on what engine you're using? I'm always interested in small displacement diesels. I'd love to know the brand, and some...
Not only will I offer a 'Hydristor clutch' as an exact replacement for an oem clutch, but I will also be able to offer a 'his n hers' switch with it. The way...
I am looking to purchase a infinite variable transmision for a car. I need it to handle about 600+ hp and be able to get get gear ratios to handle 15,000 rpm....

Does anyone know much information regarding the hydraulic type CVT's used on the Honda Rubicon ATV's?? Im working on a report which discusses the possibiltiy...
... You do realize that you could lower the input rpms by using gearing before the transmission input, right? Most CVT applications are limited to lower power ...
Hi all, I am considering doing a university project using a belt type CVT to transmit power, but I would like to find out some real data on what sort of...
Hi Bryce, Yeah i realise the speeds can be reduced but 27,500 rpm is after a reduction by a factor of 6, i.e a turbo shaft speed of 165,000 rpm. Is friction a...
... Wow, that's pretty amazing that a reduction factor of 6 drops it that low. Speed will probably be a problem too. The belts in CVTs typically cannot stand...
Dear Group, There is a charity raffle to give away a new Honda Accord. All proceeds to benefit ECOS Research, a nationally registered IRS 501c3 Tax-Exempt...
I have a Volvo CVT (circa 1989). I'm planning to use it on a wind installation. I understand that the ratio is varied by increasing/decreasing the vacuum...
