Abstract
Abstract A non-step transmission is provided with a rotor (17) of which input shaft is connected to a drive source (1), another rotor (19) of which output shaft (19a) is connected to a driving load, a plurality of exciting windings for controlling the inter-coupling-force of said rotors (17, 19), and a control unit (4) for recognizing the condition of operation of a vehicle (2), and determining a gear ratio of the transmission (3). The gear ratio is controlled to be set to the determined value by controlling the exciting winding.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
92 words
A non-step transmission (3) comprising: a first rotor (17) at an input side, a second rotor (19) at an output side, a torque transmitting means for transmitting rotational
torque between the above two rotors, and a control unit (4) for controlling the difference
between the rotational speeds of the rotors (17, 19), wherein a rotary shaft (19a) of said rotors (17, 19) is
controlled by providing an output obtained due to the
difference between the rotational speeds to a motor (12)
which rotates according to said first and second rotors
(17, 19).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
98 words
A non-step transmission comprising: a first rotor (17), a second rotor (19), a first winding for generating torque which acts on each
other between said first and second rotors (17, 19), a second winding for generating torque which acts on
each other between a stator and said first and second
rotors (17, 19), a control unit (4) for determining a gear ratio
according to an operation command value supplied from
the outside, and a power converter for controlling each torque by
suppling independently a current to said first and
second windings so as to take the gear ratio.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
87 words
