To control transmission ratio of a continuously variable transmission connected to a combustion engine (e.g., for optimal fuel efficiency of a powered vehicle), effective diameter of pulleys is controlled in response to an electrical signal. A control signal suitable for comparison with hydrodynamic pressure values is produced by a computing device based on input signals representing load, speed, and other operating conditions and based further on stored data representing engine characteristics. A control signal is conveniently used to control hydrodynamic pressure by means of electromagnetically operated valves. Such control device is readily adapted to different engines by replacement of stored characteristic data. |
