Summing up the construction of the system of change of speed, the system of control of change of speed and the system of rotation in reverse, the main characteristics of the system of the change of speed is that it uses a unit of compound of planetary gear that is, has 2 gear sets in which each equal element (sun gear or ring gear) is removed from 2 sets of planetary gears (including each one a sun gear, a carrier, and a ring gear) and transmits to the output shaft the power supplied through a suitable combinatorial connection between the elements that constitute the gear set and at the same time through the selected input elements of the 2 sets of gears. The speed change control system uses an improved torque converter which is improved over the torque converter of known automatic transmissions. Reviewing the construction of the speed change control system using the terminologies related to the parts that constitute it used in the conventional torque converter, for convenience of explanation, the speed change control system consists of an impeller which it is a driving body, a turbine that is a driving body, a stator for increasing torque, a connecting shaft to be connected to the speed change system, a control shaft, and a fixed shaft to fix the stator.

The methods of operation and the energy transmission method according to the same for each state of change of speed (neutral, forward and reverse rotation) of the continuously variable transmission of the present invention constructed as described above are described below. Before the explanation, it should be noted that although the continuously variable transmission of the present invention can be used in any mechanism, whose speed changes and emits the driving force, as motor vehicles and industrial machines, the motor vehicles will be explained as an example in the present. For the purpose of defining terminologies, a rotation of each planetary gear means a rotation around its own axis (safe pin in the present) and a revolution means the case where the carrier rotates, in which case the planetary gear normally rotates. and combined translation. Furthermore, for convenience of explanation, the direction of counter-clockwise rotation when viewed from the left side of the drawings is taken as the direction of the input axis, the direction equal to that of the input axis is defined as the direction of the input axis. direction f (or direction A) in each drawing, similarly the direction opposite to that of the input axis is defined as direction i (or direction B), the rotation after the stop (acceleration state) is denoted as 0 • t (or 0 • i), the height after rotation (deceleration state) is denoted as t • 0 (or - • 0), and the state in which the planetary gear does not rotate around its own axis after rotation and all the rotating bodies rotate as an integral body at the same revolutions as the input revolutions is denoted as t. 1 (or • 1). The method of operation for the state of neutral and forward rotation is described based on the construction to which the reverse rotation system Rl is combined.
I.- Neutral state (fig 5): output shaft 124 stopped Input shaft 12 t Solar gear of first gear input 112 Planetary 114 - 1 (1) Second planetary gear 116 i -1 - control solar gear 122 t- connecting shaft 14 t - drive housing 18 t - impeller 20 f - turbine 22 t • 1 - control shaft 16 t • 1 - carriers exit 118, 120 ¬ reverse rotation 212 t • 1 - reverse rotation solar gear 214 t • 1 - reverse rotation planetary gear 216 - - reverse rotation carrier 218 t: (lnactive). The neutral state is a state in which the forward clutch 226 and the reverse rotary brake 222 are released, the motor energy can not rotate the output shaft 124, and the system is inactive as shown in FIG. 5. That is, if the direct clutch 226 that is installed between the output shaft 124 and the integral reverse rotation sun gear shaft 212 with the output carriers 118, 120 is released, the energy between the speed change system 110 is released. and the output shaft 124 is disconnected. The input shaft 12 rotates with the input of the motor power, the input solar gear 112, formed integrally with the input shaft 12, also rotates in the direction A, the same as that of the input shaft 12, and the first planetary gear 114, engaged with the input sun gear 112, rotates in the direction B, as opposed to that of the input sun gear 112. The second planetary gear 116, formed integrally with the first planetary gear 114, is rotated in the direction B, and the control solar gear 122, meshed with the interior of the second planetary gear 116, is rotated in the direction A, as opposed to that of the second planetary gear 116. The connection shaft 14, integrally connected to the solar gear of control 122, the housing of the impeller 18, connected to the connection shaft 14, and the impeller 20, integral with the impeller housing 18, are rotated in the direction A. The turbine 22 installed to face the impeller 20 is rotates in the direction A by the fluid flow, the control shaft 16 integrally connected to the turbine 22 is rotated in the direction A, and the output carriers 118, 120 integrally connected to the control shaft 16 are rotated in the direction A The integral reverse rotation sun gear shaft 212 with the output carriers 118, 120 is also rotated in the direction A, the reverse integral rotation sun gear 214 with the reversed rotation sun gear shaft 212 is rotated in the direction A, and the reverse gear planetary gear 216 rotates geared to the outside of the reverse sun gear 214 in the reverse direction in the direction B. Because the output ring gear 220 meshed with the outside of the planetary gear 216 of reverse rotation is stopped by the load of the output shaft 124, the reverse rotation carrier is inactive in the direction A.
II.- State of forward rotation (Fig. 6) Input shaft 12 t - Input solar gear 112 t - First planetary gear 114 i • (1) Second planetary gear 116 i • 1 - Solar control gear 122 t - Connection shaft 14 t - Impeller housing 18 t - Impeller 20 t - Turbine 20 0 • t - Control shaft 16 0 - t - Carriers exit 118, Reverse rotation solar gear 212 0 • t- (direct clutch) - Output shaft 124 0 - t This is a state in which the direct clutch 226 installed between the output shaft 124 and the rotation sun gear shaft 212 in integral reverse with the output carriers 118, 120 is actuated.
If the energy of the motor is supplied to the input shaft 12, the solar input gear 112, formed integrally with the input shaft 12, is rotated in the direction A, the same as that of the input shaft 12, the first planetary gear 114, meshed with the solar input gear 112, is rotated in the direction B opposite that of the solar input gear 112 because the output carriers 118, 120 are stopped by the load of the output shaft 124 connected through the direct clutch 226. By the rotation of the first planetary gear 114, the second planetary gear 116, integrally connected to the first planetary gear 114, is rotated in the direction B and the rotation of the direction A of the solar control gear 122 geared with the second planetary gear 116 decreases. The connection shaft 14, integrally connected to the solar control gear 122, the housing of the impeller 18, integrally connected to the connection shaft 14, and the impeller 20, integral with the housing of the impeller 18, are decelerated and rotated in the direction A. In the present, reviewing the speed change procedure without steps from a lower step to a high pass, under the condition in which the output shaft 124 connected by driving the direct clutch 226, the output carriers 118, 120, the control shaft 16 and the turbine 22 are stopped, the rotating force The transmission to the first planetary gear 114 through the solar input gear 112 is decreased by the second planetary gear 116 and transmitted to the control solar gear 122.
The increased rotational force is transmitted through the connecting shaft 14, integrally formed with the solar control gear 122, and the impeller housing 18 integrally connected with the connecting shaft 14 to the integral impeller 20 with the impeller housing 18. At that time, because the turbine 22 is stopped by the load of the output shaft 124 due to the actuation of the direct clutch 226, a rotating difference occurs between the impeller and the turbine. In view of the characteristics of the torque converter, the increased rotational force of the impeller 20 is transmitted to the turbine 22, and the rotational force transmitted to the turbine 22 is transmitted through the control shaft 16 and the output carriers 118. , 120 integrally connected to the control shaft to the output shaft 124, and if the resistance acting on the output shaft 124 and the rotational force transmitted to the turbine 22 are in equilibrium, then the output shaft 124 is driven. This is the low speed start state. If the rotation of the motor increases, the rotational difference between the impeller 20 and the turbine 22 becomes larger and therefore, the rotational force transmitted to the turbine 22 increases, and if the rotational force transmitted to the turbine 22 is larger than the resistance acting on the turbine 22 due to the load of the output shaft 124, the output shaft 124 is accelerated until the rotating force of the turbine 22 transmitted from the impeller 20 comes in equilibrium with the resistor acting on the turbine 22.
If the output shaft 124 is accelerated, the load of the output shaft 124 is decreased, therefore, the resistance acting on the turbine 22 also decreases. If the resistance acting on the turbine 22 is decreased, the rotating difference is decreased between the impeller 20 and the turbine 22 until it comes into equilibrium with this resistance. Therefore, the rotation of the turbine 22 increases in the direction A, the same as that of the impeller 20, and also the rotation of the output carriers 118, 120, connected to the turbine 22, increases in the direction A The rotation of the output shaft 124 integral with the output carriers 118, 120 is increased and if the load of the output shaft 124 is further reduced due to the increase in the rotation of the output shaft 124 and therefore the load comes in equilibrium with the driving force of the output shaft 12, the impeller 20 and the turbine 22 are rotated in the ratio of 1: 1, and the first planetary gear 114 and the second planetary gear 116 do not rotate around their own axes but all the Rotating bodies rotate integrally. This is the high-speed state. In the present embodiment, reviewing the rotational force transmitted to the impeller 20, because the rotational force increased more than that of the input shaft 12 by the first planetary gear 114 and the second planetary gear 116, acts on the impeller 20 through the control solar gear 122 and the connection shaft 14 as to be transmitted to the turbine 22, the large rotating force is applied to the output shaft 124 in the low speed state thereby obtaining excellent acceleration and efficiency.

If the motor power is supplied to the input shaft 12, the input solar gear 112, formed integrally with the input shaft 12, is rotated in the direction A, the same as that of the input shaft 12.
Because the output carriers 118, 120, the reversed rotation sun gear shaft 212, integrally connected to the output carriers 118, 120, and the reverse rotation sun gear 214, integral with the reverse rotation sun gear shaft 212, are in a momentarily stationary condition together with the output shaft 124 by driving the reverse rotation brake 222, the first planetary gear 114 meshed with the input solar gear 112 is rotated in the direction B opposite that of the input solar gear 112 and decelerates and rotates the solar control gear 122 in the direction A through the second planetary gear 116 In addition, the connecting shaft 14, integrally connected to the solar control gear 122, the impeller housing 18, formed integrally with the connecting shaft 14, and the impeller 20, integral with the impeller housing 18, are decelerated and rotated in the direction A. In the present, reviewing the stepless speed change procedure, the carrier of reverse rotation 218 and the reverse rotation ring gear 220 integrally connected to the output shaft 124, are in a stationary condition due to the drive of the reverse rotation brake 222, installed on the outside of the reverse rotation carriers 218 , and in addition, the reversed rotation sun gear shaft 212, integral with the reverse rotation sun gear 214, and the output carriers 118, 120 integrally connected with the reversed rotation sun gear shaft 212, and the control shaft 16 and turbine 22 connected to output carriers 118, 120 by direct clutch 226, are also in a momentarily stationary condition. In this state, a part of the rotating force transmitted to the first planetary gear 114 through the solar input gear 112 is transmitted to the control solar gear 122 through the second planetary gear 116, and is also transmitted to the driver 20 through the connection shaft 14, formed integrally with the control solar gear 122 and the impeller housing 18. At that time, because the turbine 22 is stopped, a rotating difference occurs between the impeller 20 and the turbine 22. In view of the characteristics of the torque converter, while the rotational difference between the impeller 20 and the turbine 22 is larger, the rotational force becomes larger, and the increased rotational force of the impeller 20 is transmitted to the turbine 22, and both, the rotational force transmitted to the turbine 22 is transmitted to the reversed rotation sun gear shaft 212 and the reverse rotation sun gear 214 through the shaft control 16 and the output carriers 118, 120 integrally connected to the control shaft, and if the resistance acting on the solar gear 214 of reverse rotation by the load of the output shaft 124 establishes equilibrium with the rotational force transmitted to the turbine 22, the solar 214 gear of reverse rotation is driven. The rotational force is transmitted to the reverse rotation planetary gear 216, engaged with the reversed rotation sun gear 214, with rotation of the reverse rotation sun gear 214, and because the reverse rotation carrier 218 is stopped by actuating the reverse rotation brake 22, the reverse rotation planetary gear 216 rotates in the direction B which is opposite to the direction A and rotates the reverse rotation ring gear 220, engaged with the outside of the planetary gear reverse rotation 216, in the B direction. This is the start state of reverse rotation. If the rotation of the motor increases, the rotational difference between the impeller 20 and the turbine 22 becomes larger, and therefore the rotational force transmitted to the turbine 22 increases, and wherein the rotational force transmitted to the turbine 22 is larger than the resistance acting on the turbine 22 through the reversed rotation sun gear 214 due to the load of the output shaft 124, the solar rotation gear in reverse 214 is accelerated until the rotating force of the turbine 22 transmitted from the impeller 20 establishes equilibrium with the resistance acting on the turbine 22, and the rotation of the reverse rotation ring gear 220, integral with the output shaft 124, is increased in the direction B through the planetary gear of reverse rotation 216.
If the rotation of the output shaft 124 increases, because the output shaft letter 124 is decreased, the resistance acting on the turbine 22 through the reversed rotation sun gear 214 is also decreased. If the resistance acting on the turbine 22 is decreased, the rotating difference between the impeller 20 and the turbine 22 is decreased until the rotating force establishes equilibrium with the resistance. Therefore, the rotation of the turbine 22 increases in the direction A, the same as that of the impeller 20, and also, the rotation of the control shaft 16, integrally connected with the turbine 22 and the output carriers 118, 120 integrally connected to the control shaft 16 is increased in the direction A. If the rotation of the output carriers 118, 120 is increased, also the rotation of the reversed rotation sun gear shaft 212, integrally connected to the output carriers 118 , 120 and reversed rotation solar gear 214 is increased, and the rotation of the reverse rotation ring gear 220 and the output shaft 124 is also increased through the reverse rotation planetary gear 216. As described above , the operational characteristics of the reverse rotation state I according to the present reverse rotation system Rl (the same as in the other reverse rotation systems) is e the reverse pulse without steps can be achieved according to the load of the output shaft 124 even at the moment of rotation in reverse.
By checking the rotational force transmitted to the output shaft 124 in the present reverse rotation system Rl, the rotational force increased more than that of the input shaft 12 by the first planetary gear 114 and the second planetary gear 116, is transmitted to the solar gear of control 122, which acts on the impeller 20 through the connection shaft 14, and the rotational force is further increased by the impeller 20 acting on the turbine 22, it is also transmitted to the reversed rotation sun gear 214 through of the control shaft 16, integrally connected to the turbine 22, and through the output carriers 118, 120 integrally connected to the control shaft and to the reversed rotation sun gear shaft 212, and drives the ring gear 220 of rotation in integral reverse with the output shaft 124 through the planetary gear 216 of reverse rotation, and therefore, the large rotational force mpulsal output shaft 1 24 at the time of reverse rotation, so that acceleration and efficiency are improved and a steady and even advance can be achieved even during reverse operation. 2. - State of reverse rotation II (figure 8) Input shaft 12-t - Input solar gear 112 t - First planetary gear 114 • 1 -, (1) _ (2) (1) Second planetary gear 116 4 * 1 -Screw control solar 112 t - Connecting shaft 14 t Impeller stay 18 t - Impeller 20t - Turbine 22 0 • t Control axis 16 0 • t Output chokes 118,120 0 • (2) output carriers 118 120 0 • t- of reverse rotation ring 318 0 • t (3) Reverse rotation carrier 316: stopped (by reverse rotation brake drive) (4) Reverse rotation planetary gear 314 0 • t - Reverse rotation solar gear 312 0 • i - Output shaft 124 0 • i In the reversed rotation state II, the direct clutch 324 is released, and the reverse rotation brake 320 installed on the reverse rotation carrier 316 is actuated. Because the direction of rotation and the energy transmission method in the present state of reverse rotation II in the speed change system 110 and speed change control system 10 is the same as in the state of rotation in Reverse I based on the reverse rotation system RI described above, a description of it is omitted, and here, only the method of transmitting energy to the output shaft 124 through the reverse rotation system Rll is described. As shown in FIG. 8, the reverse rotation ring gear 318 integrally connected to the output carriers 118, 120 is rotated in the direction A, the same as that of the output carriers 118, 120, by rotation of the output carriers 118, 120 of the speed changing system 110. Because the reverse rotation carrier 316 is stopped by the reverse rotation brake drive 320, the planetary gear 314 of reverse rotation, engaged with the interior of the reversing gear ring gear 318 is rotated in the direction A, the same as that of the reverse gear ring gear 318, and rotates the reverse rotation sun gear 312, engaged with the interior of the planetary gear 314 of reverse rotation, in the direction B opposite to the direction A. In addition, the output shaft 124, integrally connected to the sun gear 312 of reverse rotation, is rotated in the direction B by rotation n of sun gear 312 reverse rotation. 3. - State of rotation in reverse III (figure 9) Input shaft 12 t - Input solar gear 112 t - First planetary gear 114 4 * 1 -, - (1) (2) (1) Second planetary gear 116 i • 1 -Screw control solar 122 t - Connection shaft 14 t - drive housing 18 t - Impeller 20 t - Turbine 22 0 • t - Control unit 16 0 • t Output chokes 118, 120 0 • t (2) Output carriers 118, 120 0 • t reversed rotation sun gear 412 0 • t - Reverse rotation planetary gear 416 0 • i (2) Reverse rotation planetary gear 418 0 • t - Ring gear Reverse rotation 422: stopped (by rotary brake drive in reverse) (3) reverse rotation carrier 420 0 • i - Output shaft 124 0 • 4 In the reverse rotation system III, the direct clutch 428 is released, and the reverse rotation brake 424, installed on the reverse gear ring gear 422 is actuated. Because the rotation direction and the energy transmission method in the present state of reverse rotation III and the speed change system 110 and the speed change control system 10 are the same as in the state of rotation in reverse I, based on the operation of the reverse rotation system R1 described above, a description thereof is omitted, and here, only the method of transmitting energy to the output shaft 124 through the reverse rotation system is described. R III.
As shown in Figure 9, the reversed rotation sun gear shaft 412, integrally connected to the output carriers 118, 120, is rotated in the direction A, the same as that of the output carriers 118, 120, by the rotation of the output carriers 118, 120 of the speed change system 110, and also the sun gear 414 of reverse rotation, integrally connected to the reversed rotation sun gear shaft 412, is rotated in the direction A. The sun gear 414 of reverse rotation rotates the planetary gear 416 of reverse rotation, meshed with the reverse sun gear 414 in reverse, in the opposite direction B, and the planetary gear 416 of reverse rotation rotates another planetary gear 418 of reverse rotation adjacent to and engaged with the planetary gear 416 of reverse rotation in the direction A. Although the planetary gear 418 of reverse rotation attempts to rotate the ring gear 422 of rotation in reverse gear geared to the outside of the planetary gear 418 of reverse rotation, because the ring gear 422 in reverse rotation is stopped due to the actuation of the reverse rotation brake 424, the planetary gear 418 rotational reverse gear carrier 420 of reverse rotation in the direction B. In addition, the output shaft 124 integrally connected to the reverse rotation carrier 420 rotates in the direction B. 4. - State of rotation in reverse IV (figure 10) Input shaft 12 t - solar input gear 112 t first planetary gear 114 4 * 1 - r- (1) ~ (2) (1) Second planetary gear 116 4 * 1 - solar control gear 122 t - connecting shaft 14 t - impeller housing 18 t - impeller 20 t - turbine 22 0 • t - control shaft 16 0 • t - carriers output 118, 120 0 • t.

In the reversed rotation state IV, the direct clutch 526 is released, and the reverse rotation brake 552 installed on the ring gear 520 of reverse rotation in actuated. Because the rotational direction and the energy transmission method in the present state of reverse rotation IV in the speed change system 110 and the speed change control system 10 are the same as in the state of rotation in Reverse I based on the operation of the reverse rotation system Rl described above, a description of the same is omitted, and here, only the method of transmitting the energy to! output shaft 124 through the reverse rotation system RIV. As shown in Figure 10, the reverse rotation carrier 518 integrally connected to the output carriers 118, 120 is rotated in the direction A, the same as that of the output carriers 118, 120, by rotation of the carriers output 118, 120 of the speed change system 110. The rotation is transmitted to the planetary gears 514, 516 of reverse rotation as the reverse rotation carrier 518 rotates, and because the ring gear 520 rotates in reverse, geared to the outside of the planetary gear 516 of reverse rotation, is stopped by the drive of the reverse rotation brake 522, the planetary gear 516 of reverse rotation is rotated in the opposite direction B and rotates the planetary gear 514 of reverse rotation, geared in adjacent thereto, in the direction A. The sun gear 512 of reverse rotation, engaged with the interior of the planetary gear 514 of reverse rotation, gi in the opposite direction B and giral output shaft 124 integrally connected thereto in the same direction B.
