Title:
車両用油圧機械式無段変速機
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3974998
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
To moderate the efficiency of engine braking when it is applied while a continuously variable transmission produces a large transmission ratio. Such a continuously variable transmission is constituted by a hydraulic pump having an input rotary member connected to an internal combustion engine of a vehicle, a hydraulic motor having an output rotational axis connected to a driving wheel. The hydraulic pump and hydraulic motor are coupled via a first oil passageway, which has a low oil pressure during the normal load operation of the engine but has a high oil pressure during the reverse load operation of the engine, and a second oil passageway, which has a high oil pressure during the normal load operation but has a low pressure during the reverse load operation, thereby forming a closed oil passageway circuit. At least the hydraulic pump or the hydraulic motor has a variable capacity. A one-way clutch is interposed between an input rotary member and an output rotational axis in order to directly couple them as the output rotational axis rotates faster than the input rotary member during the reverse load operation.
