  • Patent number: 10267392
    Abstract: In order for it to be also possible to transmit relatively high torques in an operationally reliable manner with low power loss and with a low or inexpensive design outlay in a bevel friction ring gear mechanism, consisting of at least two component transmissions which are configured as bevel friction ring gear mechanisms and have a first adjusting device for a friction ring of the first component transmission and a second adjusting device for a friction ring of the second component transmission, wherein the bevel friction ring gear mechanism has a regulating device for regulating an axial position of the friction rings, it is proposed that the regulating device has at least one first part regulating device with a first reference variable and a second part regulating device with a second reference variable which is separate from the first reference variable, wherein the first component transmission has the first part regulating device for regulating the position of the friction ring of the first component tra

  • Patent number: 9316293
    Abstract: A friction ring-type transmission includes two roller bodies which are arranged at a distance from each other about a gap, which correspond to each other via the friction ring and which rotate (5) on axial roller body axes. The friction ring is arranged in an adjusting bridge in such a manner that it can be axially displaced about an adjusting path along the gap and the adjusting bridge is mounted by an individual, axial guiding device.

  • Patent number: 8733209
    Abstract: In order to further develop drive arrangements with a continuously variable sub-gear mechanism, the invention proposes a drive arrangement with a continuously variable sub-gear mechanism having two circulating transmission elements, which are actively connected to one another via a circulating connecting element, having a hybrid drive comprising a first drive and at least one additional drive, and further having at least one output, wherein at least one of the two drives is interactively connected to the output, either directly or indirectly via the continuously variable sub-gear mechanism.

  • Patent number: 8708864
    Abstract: The aim of the invention is to further develop a bevel friction ring gearing. The invention thus relates to a bevel friction ring gearing in which the friction ring can be displaced by means of an adjusting device that comprises a guide on which an adjusting bridge for the friction ring is arranged in a free axially displaceable manner. The adjusting device comprises a worm-gear drive that engages with the guide.

  • Publication number: 20110263378
    Abstract: In order to be able to build conical-friction-ring transmissions more compactly, the invention proposes a conical-friction-ring transmission having a first friction cone, having a second friction cone, having a friction ring, and having at least one other transmission element, in which the first friction cone is mounted to rotate about a first friction-cone bearing axis by means of first friction-cone bearings, and the second friction cone is mounted to rotate about a second friction-cone bearing axis by means of second friction-cone bearings, in which the two friction cones are disposed tensioned relative to one another by means of the friction ring, in which main bearing forces that act radially, with regard to the friction-cone bearing axes, extend in a main bearing plane spanned by the two friction-cone bearing axes, in which the at least one other transmission element precedes or follows the friction cones, and in which coupling moments can be in effect between one of the friction cones and the at least

  • Patent number: 5496224
    Abstract: A device for damping torsional vibration of a drive shaft with a liquid damping medium including a primary gear connected to the drive shaft. A secondary gear supports a series of planetary gears in meshed connection with the primary gear. The revolving primary gear and the planetary gears form a gear pump for closed circulation of the liquid damping medium through pressure ducts. The device further includes a control device for controlling the flow rate of the liquid damping medium based on the rotational speed of the primary gear.

  • Patent number: 5078246
    Abstract: A device for changing the flow rate of a liquid damping medium is a torsional vibration damper. This damper has a rotating cylindrical damper housing, connected between a drive shaft and a power takeoff shaft. Pinions are surface-mounted in a planetary fashion without axle journals between the axial faceplates of a gear pump in recesses in the pump interior. The pinions are engaged with a central gear seated on the power takeoff shaft or on drive shaft, which form gear pumps for closed circulation of the damping medium.
