Abstract

Abstract A transmission, in particular for a motor vehicle, provided with an infinitely variable V-belt transmission having a primary and a secondary pulley over which the V-belt has been looped and provided with an input shaft, which is connected through a reversing gear to the primary pulley. The reversing gear being operated by means of a forward and a reverse command, respectively, in such a way as to transmit the same or the opposite direction of rotation. The primary pulley of said transmission is connected to an annular channel radially closed from the outside and into which a stationary pitot tube terminates for picking up a hydraulic signal depending on the speed of rotation, whereby the incorporation of means of control which prevent the reverse signal putting into operation the reversing gear, depending on the hydraulic signal.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 140 words
A transmission, in particular for a motor vehicle, provided with an infinitely variable V-belt transmission having a primary and a secondary pulley over which the V-belt has been looped, also provided with an input shaft which is connected through a reversing gear to the primary pulley, the said reversing gear being operated by means of a forward and a reverse command, respectively, in such a way as to transmit the same or the opposite direction of rotation, in which transmission the primary pulley is connected to an annular channel which is radially closed from the outside and into which a stationary pitot tube terminates for picking up a hydraulic signal depending on the speed of rotation, characterized by the incorporation of means of control which prevent the reverse signal putting into operation the reversing gear, depending on the hydraulic signal.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 140 words
A transmission, in particular for a motor vehicle, provided with an infinitely variable V-belt transmission having a primary and a secondary pulley over which the V-belt has been looped, also provided with an input shaft which is connected through a reversing gear to the primary pulley, the said reversing gear being operated by means of a forward and a reverse command, respectively, in such a way as to transmit the same or the opposite direction of rotation, in which transmission the primary pulley is connected to an annular channel which is radially closed from the outside and into which a stationary pitot tube terminates for picking up a hydraulic signal depending on the speed of rotation, characterized by the incorporation of means of control which prevent the reverse signal putting into operation the reversing gear, depending on the hydraulic signal.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 47 words
A transmission according to claim 1, characterized in that the means of control include a hydraulic valve which is controlled by the hydraulic signal of the pitot tube, that the reverse signal is given through a hydraulic line and that the valve may close this hydraulic line.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 36 words
A transmission according to claim 2, characterized in that the hydraulic valve is provided with a valve body which is loaded by the hydraulic signal of the pitot tube against the force exerted by a spring.
