Abstract: A simplified continuously variable transmission system control provides a variable clamping force and a differential cylinder pressure manipulation to change sheave ratios. The system control uses two pumps. The first pump provides the variable clamping force. The second pump provides pressure changes to effect ratio changes. The clamping force can be varied based upon operator demand on an associated engine.

Abstract: A modular assembly of a transmission is provided in which a continuously variable transmission module is separable from a planetary transmission module. When connected, the two modules function as a single transmission. The two modules are connectable in multiple orientations relative to each other. A single fluid source can be provided for operation of the two modules.

Abstract: A continuously variable transmission has an input pulley assembly connected to a first transfer pulley assembly with a first chain and a second transfer pulley assembly connected to an output pulley assembly with a second chain. The first transfer pulley assembly and the second transfer pulley assembly shaft a common shuttle disk that moves axially on a countershaft that carries the first and second transfer pulleys. The input pulley assembly and the output pulley assembly are generally axially aligned and a bearing carrier is positioned between the pulleys. A high pressure fluid supply system reduces or eliminates axial loading on the shafts of the transmission.

Abstract: A photoactivation apparatus (200) separately delivers light to a plurality of wells of a multiwell plate (110). The device-includes a plurality of light emitting diodes (210) attached to a first surface of a substrate (220) such that when the photoactivation apparatus is positioned on the multiwell plate each of the light emitting diodes delivers light to one corresponding well. The light emitting diodes (210) may extend at least partially into the wells of the multiwell plate. A heat sink (250) and fan may be provided on the device to dissipate heat generated by the light emitting diodes. The components are preferably enclosed in a conveniently-sized housing (270). The housing may include one or more grips and air vents. The apparatus includes an interlocking lip (230) defining a recess which is sized to receive at least a portion of the multiwell plate. A power supply connected to the apparatus and configured to provide an equal voltage across each of the light emitting diodes.

Abstract: A continuously variable transmission has a first shaft supporting two first pulleys. The two first pulleys each comprise a fixed disk portion and a moveable disk portion whereby axial movement of the moveable disk portions along the first shaft relative to the fixed disk portions changes an effective diameter of the two first pulleys. An articulating mechanism connects the moveable disk portions. The articulating mechanism has a body that is connected to the moveable disk portions. A second shaft extends generally parallel to the first shaft. Two second pulleys are journaled about the second shaft. The two second pulleys each has a fixed disk portion and a moveable disk portion. The two fixed disk portions are rotationally connected to the second shaft through a differential.
