  • Self-contained continuously-variable transmission with mechanical integral torque converter having automatic drive control
    Patent number: 6852057
    Abstract: A transmission for automotive use, comprising a planetary gear system that receives power in the planetary holder and initially transmits said power in a direct manner with low passage ratio by means of the sun gear and subsequently transmits said power in a regulated manner to preserve optimal engine power by means of a planetary gear system mounted inside a cylindrical impeller coupled to the annular gear which circumferentially incorporates a spiral rack, and that transmits the traction to the satellite gears, at certain diameter of the impeller corresponding to the demanded power, and then to a central variable speed gear depending on the required torque that is measured by a sensor mechanism mounted in the sun gear, which can be regulated to maintain an output torque for overdrive or economy.
