Stufenloses Toroidgetriebe für vierradgetriebene Kraftfahrzeuge

摘要

The toroidal continuous variable transmission for four-wheel drive automobiles distributes a greater torque to the rear wheels than to the front wheels. The torque of the first driven gear (24) is distributed 50% each to the first output shaft (31) and the second output shaft (32). The torque of the second driven gear (25) is transmitted 100% to the second output shaft (32). Hence, when the front wheels are connected to the first output shaft (31) and the rear wheels to the second output shaft (32), the ratio between torques distributed to the front and rear wheels is about 1:3. In the event that only the front wheels should race, reducing the transmitted torque, the torque transferred to the second side gear (28) that is not racing also decreases. The rear wheels, however, are supplied with a torque from the second driven gear (25) and therefore can secure at least 50% of the input shaft torque.
