发明名称 Transmission wheel system series with periodically varied speed ratio and having reciprocally displacing auxiliary pulley for storing/releasing kinetic energy
摘要 The present invention is to installed a unidirectional transmission at the active side, so when a transmission belt is tightened while the active pulley driving a passive pulley in periodically varied speed ratios, meanwhile an auxiliary pulley (312) is linked for storing energy to form a prestressed force, when the force applied by the active pulley to the passive pulley through the transmission belt is zero or relatively smaller, the auxiliary pulley (312) is enabled to release energy for recovering so as to apply force to the transmission belt, because the transmission belt is coupled to the active pulley and/or one end of the active wheel shaft combined with the active pulley is restrained by the unidirectional transmission device, the transmission belt is enabled to link the passive pulley to operate in the original revolving direction for feeding back the kinetic energy.
