What are the types of continuously variable transmissions?

[ChristianDella]

Types of continuously variable transmissions: 1. Mechanical type: There are various forms, with the common one being the cone-block metal V-belt drive, used in automobiles; 2. Hydraulic transmission type: Used in engineering vehicles and agricultural machinery; 3. Electric type: Used in electric vehicles. The starting devices for automotive continuously variable transmissions come in the following three forms: 1. Electromagnetic clutch type: Large in mass and size, with low thermal load capacity; 2. Electronically controlled wet friction plate type: Compact in structure, fast response, and low energy loss; 3. Hydraulic torque converter type: High starting torque, excellent hill-start performance, easy driving, good creep performance, and capable of reducing vibrations and shocks caused by uneven engine torque.
