WHAT IS RADICALLY NEW ABOUT THE CVET?
World
Wide Patents issued for CVET Technology in 16 of the largest western
industrialized countries and regions, including Canada, US, Europe,
China, Japan, Mexico, Australia, and others.
The
CVET transmission transfers rotary power from a gas engine (or electric
motor) at output speeds and torques as needed to drive a vehicle.
The major differentiating factor is that the CVET makes it possible
to attain highway driving fuel efficiencies under city driving conditions,
eliminating the problem of lower efficiency in start/stop driving
conditions of city driving.
The
CVET design makes it possible to operate a motor (whether
gas or electric) at its
peak efficiency of operation , whether a car is moving at highway
speeds or in start/stop city driving.
The CVET, unlike mechanical CVTs, does not rely on the external
application of mechanical forces to control the output speed. The
CVET does not require external power to control the transfer ratio,
nor are there friction surfaces or clutches to vary transfer ratios,
thus eliminating the major sources of efficiency loss. For this
reason, the CVET is designed to approach the theoretically attainable
levels of efficiency increase as shown in the graphs.
IN
THE SUMMER OF 2007, CPC COMPLETED SUCCESSFUL TESTING OF A CVET PROTOTYPE.
THIS
IS THE ORIGINAL CONCEPT OF THE CVET IMPLEMENTATION (2003/4).

PICTURE
OF A WORKING CVET THAT SUCCESSFULLY DEMONSTRATES THE PROOF OF CONCEPT!
Actual
size of CVET core is 6" x 6" x 10" (2007)
(portion
blocked out to limit disclosure of design)
Note- Dimensions
may vary by configuration and horse power rating (size shown above
has estimated transfers capability of 200HP).
