Abstract

A continuously variable transmission has an input shaft, an output shaft, an intermediate shaft connected to the output shaft and to the input shaft via one or more tooth engagements, a variator transmission arranged on the intermediate shaft, a hydrostatic transmission, a housing, and a bearing plate. The housing at least partially encloses the input shaft, the output shaft, and the intermediate shaft. The hydrostatic transmission is arranged geometrically parallel to the variator transmission, and the power flow can be split therebetween. The output shaft is offset horizontally and vertically with respect to the input shaft. The housing is in one piece and open on one side. The components are held in the housing by the bearing plate in the mounted state. One or more of the housing and the bearing plate have flat surfaces on outer sides, which are configured to fasten module components on the continuously variable transmission.
