PatBox: manually control CVT

Post by manolis »

Hello all.

In the PatBox CVT an auxiliary thin belt rides around the conventional V-belt and around rollers mounted on a lever.
The displacement of the lever varies the transmission ratio.

In the following youtube video it is the first PatBox prototype made by a third party:

In the following youtube video it is the second PatBox prototype made also by a third party:

At the modep army forum the modification is presented step-by-step in the thread: Launch lever for hobbit solution. FINALLY!

Thanks

Hello.

Here are a few comments of JBOT ( at MopedArmy forum at http://www.mopedarmy.com/forums/read.php?1,3941377 ) who modified his Honda Hobbit ( Canino ) to PatBox:

“Frankly, this is better than that thrust bearing design.
It's universal, easier, no mystery bearings to buy,
No mods to the pulleys.
It's the best.”

and

“This design is not difficult to make at all, and shifts like butter.”

and

“As for eating power, It might, but my bike is faster now.
I can say that my hobbit is faster now than it was before.
Substantially.
Not having to accommodate for rpm drop at high speeds
because you can manually adjust opens so many new tuning avenues.”

and

“Tonight I went to the store.
Coming back I had to gun it uphill to catch the yellow.
The bike just went uphill so fast compared to my other tune I had on it.
It is nice to let the gearing do the work sometimes, and let the revs work other times.”


JBOT is a third party.
