TLDR
In this paper, a rotary field pole is fixed integrally rotatably to a drive plate for coupling the output shaft of an engine with a transmission, through a field core section secured to the engine body.Abstract:
PURPOSE:To improve the acceleration response of an engine, by exciting a rotary field pole fixed integrally rotatably to a drive plate for coupling the output shaft of the engine with a transmission, through a field core section secured to the engine body CONSTITUTION:Output shaft 3 of an engine 1 drives an automatic transmission 5 through a drive plate 14 the transmission 5 comprises a case 6 having a sleeve 6a extending to the engine 1 side and an input shaft 7 facing the output shaft 3 The rotary field pole 20 of a charge generator 19 is fixed to the drive plate 14 and rotated integrally with the engine 1 A field core section 24 comprising a field core 25 and a field coil 26 for exciting the rotary field pole 20 is secured to the engine 1 body not to rotate therewith By such arrangement, rotary inertia of the engine 1 is reduced and the acceleration response of engine is improvedread more

Controller for variable transmission
TL;DR: In this paper, an electronic controller for a variable ratio transmission and an electronically controllable variator or other CVT is described, which can be configured to receive input signals indicative of parameters associated with an engine coupled to the transmission.
Patent
Continuously-variable transmission
TL;DR: In this article, a continuously variable transmission (CVT) assembly is employed for transmitting a torque from an external power source to a power source. And the CVT assembly includes a variable-diameter input pulley and a variable diameter output pulley, each having a respective range of adjustment.
