Hi. my name is Thomas Kasmer and I too am polish and born in the US. Try the www.uspto.gov website and do a search for those numbers. Under the patent ...
Wieslaw, I found US patent number 4,361,055 dated 20 November, 1982 for a variable torque converter by RobertKinson from an attorney in Syracuse, New York. ...

Hi Bruce , I believe you have the wrong idea about how the Volvo CVT works . Ratio control is principally by flyweights inside the primary drums, assisted or...
Dear Wieslaw, Thank you for the patent numbers. I too had been looking for information on this invention. I have now been able to check the status of them on...

As I mentioned before, I am investigating using CVT for a motorcycle. Just thought I would share a find. There is a custom motorcycle company called Ridley...
Hi, I was surfing different CVT sites, trying to see if anyone has done what I am contemplating, that is installing a CVT in my trike that I am repowering. My...
I just wonder is there exist any CVT made up only from regular gearsets , i.e, no friction , no hydraulic ,no pump, no chain, no belt, no link, no electricity...

But the original message asked about a geared CVT. Are you suggesting that a "slideing teeth" sheave is the same as a geared CVT? ... From: seb fontana To:...
... teeth/toothed is positive connection, not relying on fiction that is sometimes quite high pressure for grip. Yes? What I have is a chain that has sliding...
