Research on Metal Ring Strain Energy Power Loss of MB-CVT

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper proposed a metal belt continuously variable transmission (MB-CVT) model on the basis of elastic mechanics theory to describe the strain energy power loss (SEPL) of metal rings. The metal rings were simplified as combined thin wall cylinder model in the arc part and simple tension model in the straight part. The results show that, the SEPL scope of the metal rings are 27.15-86.73W, the SEPL reduced when the transmission ratio is 1. This result shows a well agreement with the theory analysis.
