Summary:PCT No. PCT/EP94/00832 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 14, 1995 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 14, 1995 PCT Filed Mar. 16, 1994 PCT Pub. No. WO94/21941 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 29, 1994The invention concerns a continuously variable transmission having a driving and a driven shaft (1, 9) and first and second intermediate shafts (10, 11). Power is transmitted to the driven shaft (9) through a transmission variometer with i2 arrangement. According to the invention, the input power of the transmission is transmitted to the driven shaft through a transmission branch with constant ratio and through the continuously variable transmission branch. This power distribution reduces the proportion of the power transmitted through the continuously variable transmission branch. The transmission efficiency of the whole transmission may, in particular, be thus improved. This continuously variable transmission is designed for use in private cars and light utility vehicles.
