Market situation:

There are many special vehicles with engine power 100 kW requiring CVT

transmissions.

The challenges are low production numbers and specific installation

requirements in the different vehicles.

Target:

To provide a CVT transmission module for

niche applications.

The module shall be dimensioned for

vehicle power ranges up to 100kW.

The available VTP transmission 1RH2F for

transporters defines the base for the

development of the basic module.

VTP transmission is a continuously variable transmission based on the

principle of hydrostatic mechanical powersplit with

pure hydrostatic drive at low speeds

one, two or three powersplit ranges

Key element is a twin planetary unit at transmission output.

Use of axial piston hydros as compact units or as separate components.

Shifting from pure hydrostatic gear in first gear reverse and first gear

forward is done at synchronous speeds.

Shifting from first to second gear forward

is done with friction clutches by simultaneously

compensating the shifting gap with the hydro.

Advantages VTP transmission

Shifting from hydrostatic gear to powersplit gears at

synchronous speeds.

No interruption of drawbar pull.

Increased gear ratio in powersplit gears due to double planetary

unit.

Just two powersplit gears required for achieving sufficient

maximum speed with reasonable hydros.

High efficiency due to small hydros and low speed differences in

open friction clutches even at high travel speeds.

Robust, cost effective transmission design.

Simplified transmission versions available by modular

transmission concept.

Conclusion

VTP transmission is available in 1RH2F configuration with

back-to-back hydro integrated. Test results show best

performance in function and efficiency.

This transmission defines the base for a VTP module with

external hydropump and hydromotor.

The VTP module comprehends all mechanical and electronic

parts and components required to achieve CVT function. This

provides maximum configuration flexibility for a wide range of

applications and vehicles.

Due to its modular construction and the use of standard

variators, the transmission can be adapted with affordable

investment to meet specific conditions regarding installation or

application.
