| Been looking at information about CVT transmissions. It's my understanding that a CVT transmission contains a differential connected to a hydrostatic motor that turns in reverse thus varying the speed by increasing the speed of the hydrostat motor. This connected to a powershift gearbox controlled by a computer provides seamless speed change though a range of speeds. This should provide nearly direct drive characteristics when the hydrostat motor is not turning. Am I on the right track here? Is there anything that tells you what percent the hydro is turning so you could maximize efficiency under a heavy drawbar load? | |
