How a CVT works! (Animation)

www.bring-knowledge-to-the-wor...
This animation explains the basic principle of CVTs (continuously variable transmission). Here, we look at the Variomatic and the Multitronic.
1) Input shaft, output shaft, metal belt
2) Continuously variable RPM
3) Pulleys and sheaves
4) Cogged v-belt, metal belt, CVT chain
5) Variomatic with centrifugal weights
6) Use of hydraulic oil pump

[@vm5571]

So far the best CVT explanation I saw, many others fail to explain how the belt interacts with shaft and V shape details. Well done!

[@lexsoft3969]

You are right. Some don't explain how to move the moveable face of pulley which I want to know more detail.

Yeah this was a really nice illustration, but plastic kid at the end was creepy AF.

Yeah it actually explains the method of operation and construction in detail it's nice to see as before I had no clue how a cvt did it thing.

Nice description of the distinction between rubber belts, segmented metal belts, and chains.

[@muhammadfarooqi]

the best simulation i've found to understand ---- how the moving part comes closer or moves away from the spinning part.. this is really informative. Thank you sir.

[@zahidahmad3260]

One of the best explanation I have ever seen. Now I get how CVT actually works after watching this video, thanks to admin

[@karyllhyacinthe6202]

WOW! Genuinely impressed by the explanation and animation

[@rickyblade1155]

Your videos are fantastic! It makes learning so much easier when one can see an animated visual of the component working. Bravo! Keep it up.. This is my new favorite channel. Waiting for a video on locking and limited slip differentials.

You are very smart!! My Nissan has a CVT and I now completely understand how it works! Well done man!

[@amandeepsinghsandhu4906]

Wonderful animation of CVT. Kudos to developers. Thanks for amazing explanation

[@keitofu]

Great video here !! By far the most complete and simplest explanation found concerning CVT. Thank you for the last part explaining also that modern cars use oil pump to adjust position of the sheaves. I came here because of that part and found the right explanation Thank you so much !!

[@Pete856]

There is a big difference between how the scooter belt works and a CVT belt. A "normal" belt pulls from the drive pulley (or sheave) to the output, a CVT belt pushes. As a result the 2 belts are built completely different, a belt that pulls is much easier to make as the tension keeps it running straight, so as long as the internal strands are strong enough, it holds together. A CVT belt has to push straight without buckling, it does this by the drive elements locking into a solid mass when under compression.

[@Roman-mv3gv]

[@TrainTrackTrav]

I always thought a CVT some how used some type of single conical gear that meshed with a single input gear that used a centrifugal device to slide the input gear up the conical gear. Huh, learn something new every day.

[@kckcmctcrc]

very interesting... Engineers are not unlike artist. You have to be pretty creative to conceive such things.

[@AP-bo1if]

there is a difference between engineering and innovative engineering. most true innovative engineering is dead these days. the reason comes down to is "if you have an idea then likely someone else has already come up with it in the past" 95% of engineers typically work off existing systems and designs make small adjustments in order to reach design objectives. there is that few percent that produce something really innovative and unique, that's where the art aspect comes in, and it's rare.
