The CVT working principle
A CVT consists of an electronically controlled and oilpressure supported variator. The variator consists of a
set of pulleys (primary and secondary) and a high alloy
steel pushbelt. The pushbelt is the heart of the CVT
and forms the indispensable link between the vehicle’s
engine and the driving wheels. The engine’s power is
transferred from the primary pulley to the secondary
pulley by pushing the CVT belt. By changing the width
of the pulleys an infinite number of ratios can be
established.
The Bosch pushbelt consists of two ring packages of
9 or 12 rings each and approximately 400 elements of
24 or 30 mm width.
