Abstract
A hydro-mechanical continuously variable transmission for producing high torque output is provided. One transmission includes an engine drive shaft driven by an engine and a planetary gear unit driven by power from the engine and to provide power to drive a transmission output shaft. The transmission also includes a hydrostatic drive unit driven by power from the engine and to drive a primary hydrostatic drive shaft. The transmission includes an engine clutch to be driven by the engine and to drive an input sun gear of the planetary gear unit while engaged. The transmission includes a secondary hydrostatic drive shaft driven by the primary hydrostatic drive shaft and to drive a ring gear of the planetary gear unit. The transmission includes a hydrostatic output clutch driven by the secondary hydrostatic drive shaft and to provide power to drive an output sun gear of the planetary gear unit while engaged.
