Abstract

A power transmission device includes an input shaft, an output shaft, a differential device, a continuously variable transmission unit, and a control device. The differential device includes a first rotation element connected to the input shaft, a second rotation element connected to the output shaft, and a third rotation element. The continuously variable transmission unit includes a conversion unit configured to convert rotational power of the third rotation element into an other power, and a reconversion unit configured to reconvert the converted other power into the rotational power and supply the reconverted rotational power to the output shaft. The control device includes a continuously variable transmission control unit configured to generate a control signal of the continuously variable transmission unit such that the other power generated by the conversion unit exceeds the other power input to the reconversion unit.
