Infinite torque converter assembly - has two differential drives with parallel shafts and with one shaft with higher speed

摘要

The input shaft (4) from the engine drives a planet cage (5) of the first gearing. The torque is split between the two shafts (1,2) while the output drive shaft (7) takes its torque from the second planet cage (8) which is coupled to the two drive shafts. One shaft has a higher speed by incorporating a special gearing (3). This divides the torque proportionally between the two drive shafts. The output drive depends on the relative braking of either drive shaft and hence the differential distribution of the torque.
