Continuously variable transmission refers to a type of automatic transmission in vehicles that can continuously obtain any transmission ratio within the gear range. A CVT transmission is a type of automotive transmission, also known as a continuously variable transmission. Its working principle is: in the CVT transmission system, traditional gears are replaced by a pair of pulleys and a steel belt. Each pulley consists of a V-shaped structure formed by two conical discs. The engine shaft connects to the small pulley, which drives the large pulley through the steel belt. The functions of the transmission are: 1. Change the transmission ratio to meet the traction needs under different driving conditions; 2. Enable reverse driving to meet the need for the vehicle to move backward; 3. Interrupt power transmission; 4. Enable neutral gear.
