<p>Continuously variable transmission system that is capable of gradually and smoothly multiplying TORQUE while decreasing RPM and vice-versa. The main assembly consisting of one, two, three or more pairs of co-axial diametrically opposed one-way clutches having gear teeth on their outer perimeter together with their corresponding pairs of diametrically opposed freewheel carrying shafts which are interconnected through a central hub assembly. The axes of the freewheel carrying shafts share the same plane with each other and with the central hub's multi-directional center around which they are radially and symmetrically mounted. The freewheels are engaged in one rotational direction and disengaged in the opposite rotational direction of their carrying shafts and are in turn continuously and unidirectionally meshed to a common rotatable output gear. The infinitely and continuously variable TORQUE and RPM ratios are produced by causing the freewheel carrying shafts to rotatably oscillate at gradually variable oscillation arcs thereby causing their respective freewheels to smoothly rotate the common output gear at correspondingly variable rotation speeds. The freewheel carrying shafts are caused to rotatably oscillate by a swash plate embodiment, a double yoke or a T-joint embodiment. <IMAGE></p> |
