CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION WITH CHAIN OUTPUT

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a powertrain of a motor vehicle.SOLUTION: A multi-mode continuously variable transmission in a powertrain of a motor vehicle includes a continuously variable unit connected to a planetary gear set arrangement. The planetary gear set arrangement generally includes two planetary gear sets, two brakes, and one clutch and provides multiple modes of ratio selection between the continuously variable unit and a transmission output member. The transmission output member is connected to a chain driven final having only three axes of rotation.
