PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a power modulating device operating at varying efficient optimizing speeds from a generator and/or an internal combustion engine.SOLUTION: A continuously variable transmission (1000) according to one embodiment of the invention comprises a first carrier member (1028) and a second carrier member (1030) axially connected to each other by a carrier holding ring (1036) and relatively rotatable to each other. A transmission ratio is changed by tilting axes of traction planets (spherical bodies), which is caused by a relative rotation between the first and second carrier members (1028, 1030). 【課題】電動機および／または内燃機関からさまざまな効率最適化速度で動作する動力調整装置を提供する。【解決手段】本発明の一実施形態は、キャリア保持リング（１０３６）によって軸方向に結合され、かつ互いに相対的に回転可能である、第１キャリア部材（１０２８）および第２キャリア部材（１０３０）を備えた無段変速機（１０００）である。変速比は、第１キャリア部材と第２キャリア部材との間の相対的な回転によってもたらされる、トラクション遊星（球体）の軸を傾斜させることによって変更される。【選択図】図１５
