Patent number: 10865871Abstract: A cone-pulley flexible transmission is disclosed that comprises a first shaft having a first cone-pulley pair and a second shaft having a second cone-pulley pair. The first and second cone-pulley pairs each have a first cone pulley movable in an axial direction and a second cone pulley stationary in the axial direction. A flexible transmission means may be arranged between the first and second cone-pulley pairs for torque transmission. The first and second shafts may be rotatably supported by a bearing. The bearing of the first shaft or the second shaft may be a fixed bearing. The fixed bearing may include an inner bearing ring arranged on an outer circumferential surface of a corresponding shaft and an outer bearing ring fastened to a transmission housing by a sleeve extending through a wall of the transmission housing.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2016Date of Patent: December 15, 2020Assignee: Schaeffler Technologies AG & Co. KGInventors: Konstantin Braun, Juri Hartmann, Raphael Klima, Kornelius Wiegert

Patent number: 10619705Abstract: A plate link chain for a continuously variable transmission of a motor vehicle is provided. The plate link chain includes a plurality of link plates arranged parallel to a running direction of the plate link chain and each link plate includes an aperture formed therein. A plurality of pressure pieces are oriented perpendicular to the running direction and arranged in pairs to be received in the apertures of the link plates to form two joints in each link plate. The two joints in each link plate are supported by arcuate outer sections of the pressure pieces.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2016Date of Patent: April 14, 2020Assignee: SCHAEFFLER TECHNOLOGIES AG & CO. KGInventors: Alaa Harmouch, Konstantin Braun

Publication number: 20170074352Abstract: A rocker joint for a plate link chain. The rocker joint is defined by pairs of contacting rocker pressure pieces that pass through openings formed in chain link plates. Each of the rocker pressure pieces has a rocker pressure piece height, and each includes a rocker pressure piece rocking radius that is in contact with the rocking radius of an adjacent rocker pressure piece. The ratio between the rocking radius and the rocker pressure piece height of the rocker pressure pieces is selected to be small so that a contact point of the contacting rocker pressure pieces moves less far than conventional rocker pressure piece movements during travel of the plate link chain around and between pairs of spaced conical disks.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 15, 2015Publication date: March 16, 2017Applicant: Schaeffler Technologies AG & Co.
