CVT in scooters don't go via torque converter to connect with the ICE. They getaway with a centrifugal clutch. It's a dry setup and far more efficient than the torque converter. Torque converters with 1 way clutch included. I think some manufacturers even tried electro magnetic clutches to pair the ICE to the CVT. The day will be, when the ISG from a mild hybrid takes over during stalling speeds allowing the ICE to be paired directly to the CVT without any clutch interface. That way Direct Drive would have finally arrived in the automobiles.

Belts are never meant to bottom out on v-groove pulleys, so it's not really worse than any other pulley you'd use one of these belts on. That being said, belts are always a wear item and will always need to be replaced at regular intervals, no matter how they're used.
@@Gellis12 excellently said, regardless of use each belt size and temperament needs different replacement intervals obviously the tougher the belt the less often it need be changed
Same idea as CVT was used on the Massey-Harris Number 27 combine harvester. It had two adjustable pulleys which were called sheaves. They functioned in the same way as a CVT with the pulley halves opening and closing. Forward speed was adjusted by setting the control lever to different positions. The sheaves themselves were forced into position by springs. The pulleys were connected by a very heavy belt. Slippage was taken care of by spraying some belt dressing on the belt. Very reliable technology.
People dont realize that the reason CVTs are awful is because of us. We didn't like that we couldnt feel a shift in the transmission, so they made it feel like it shifts. And it compromised the transmission design as a result Edit: grammar, I must have typed this at like 2 AM

No bro- Jatco CVTs in Nissans and some older Chrysler products are just garbage. Take it from someone who worked on them. They were junk BEFORE they even programmed simulated shifting ratios into them. Bought an 08 Caliber and it killed it's 3rd CVT at 110k- it was a regular ass jatco CVT with no simulated shifts.

When I was a kid I knew why cars needed transmissions and I imagined that something like this would have to be what was inside of snow mobiles and scooters but it was hard to believe they could get it work.
Changing weights to lighter will give you more power at the start. Sometimes even lifting the front wheel up but your maximum speed will be lower. And using heavy weights do the opposite. I spent my child hood owning multiple scooters and stunt riding. Wish i could turn back time 😀
Bought a brand new Altima back in 2022, my wife was adamant on me getting one with the vc turbo but I ended up choosing one with a 2.5 since I’ve never been a fan of anything turbo. It’s an Altima and I’m not the usual Altima driver… I don’t race and don’t need a turbo. Plus it’s awd
This transmission is very efficient at converting power into heat. In my country it is very common to find a Clutch cover (or bowl as we call it) that has turned bluish with purple gradient when servicing a scooter because of how hot it gets
actually i have the same scooter with over 80000 miles and no problem whatsoever and in case if something goes wrong then fixing it costs about 15$ here in india
To all people saying CVTs suck they are actually better performing than automatic transmission. They are used in every scooter, most ATVs, side by sides also large majority of tractors, combines, heavy machinery use cvt
An imbalance in a rotating assembly, or just a guess, a belt to loose slapping around? Could be parts missing/worn/broken. They're easy enough to take apart.
On the edge of the front pulley there is a nest of rollers.The roller plays a role in adding/reducing torque to the cvt's energy.Scooter users can increase the amount of roller weight/decrease the amount of roller weight according to the suitability of the local road.The heavier the roller,the higher top speed.As the weight of the roller decreases,the engine power becomes stronger but the top speed decreases. Example: (1) If the road is hilly,scooter users can reduce the amount of roller weight to ensure the motor is powerful enough to climb the hilly road. (2) If the road is long,scooter users can increase the amount of roller weight to increase top speed. THE TOTAL WEIGHT OF THE ROLLER IS DETERMINED ACCORDING TO THE SUITABILITY OF THE SURROUNDING ROADS

Worst system. I was on a highway at a speed of 70. And the belt got broken, because of best my Selfstart, fan and kick rachet also got damaged. I had to pull my Activa 4 km away. This is actually the worst system. Chain system is best
yeah chains are more reliable than belts same with the timing chain that connects camshaft(s) with crankshaft and is more durable than Timing belt belt gets easily wear while chain is better stronger more durable also belts are prone to snapping or breaking which can cause serious problems to the engine and of course expensive repairs 🤑🤑🤑🤑 i agree that chain system is the best

Es peligroso acelerar la moto sin la tapa, en mi ciudad un adolescente de apenas 15 años falleció, cuando su mecánico revolucionó la moto, los abestos se rompieron, se partió la campana, y fue a parar a la cabeza del menor.
Muito perigoso mesmo ‼️😧
Si hace años que existe este sistema, las Scooter ya de los 80, lo tenían. Ahora está de moda en los autos.
Love the Navi, such a cute lil moped/motorcycle
Awsome I knew the principle but was wondering how it was implemented. Thanx for a cool short vid.
Hmmm this one not explode. Last time I see this type of vidio, that one explode🤣

It's interesting to see one running.
When I was a kid I knew why cars needed transmissions and I imagined that something like this would have to be what was inside of snow mobiles and scooters but it was hard to believe they could get it work.
CVTs are really god for scooters.
finally came to know what cvt is..
The old dutch DAF- 33/44/55/66 back in the 60ies and 70ies used to have this kind of transmission as well.
DAF invented CVT
@@peterjanssen91на советских комбаинах это тоже было. Технология древняя))
And then Volvo bought DAF and continued selling DAF 66 as Volvo 66.
@@peterjanssen91 CVT was patented by Daimler Benz in 1880-s, and invention is attributed to Leonadrdo da Vinci in 1490
Its different with cars CVT, the belt especially...
no very similar but cars use steel bands
My dad has a Volvo 66dl that has two pulleys exactly like these in the rear
The principal of work is the same. But mechanically very different
Eso es una Mobilete de 50cc, de los años 70, hace más de 50 años, ya estaba inventado y funcionando😂
Changing weights to lighter will give you more power at the start. Sometimes even lifting the front wheel up but your maximum speed will be lower. And using heavy weights do the opposite. I spent my child hood owning multiple scooters and stunt riding. Wish i could turn back time 😀
Making the weights lighter does increase fuel consumption, they are fun to mess around with😊
Yg aku tahu kelemahan cvt bila mau mendapat pecutan extra contohnya bila mau memotong atau naik bukit atau keduanya sekali.. Tapi kelebihan banyak
This is good stuff. Thanks for sharing.
Engineer ka kamal
O melhor câmbio já fabricado.
Положение ремня зависит не только от оборотов двигателя, а также от оборотов ведомого шкива(колеса)
Replaced four of them in a 2016 Hyundai Elantra.
Damn that secondary clutch is shot
Ovu tehnologiju kombajn ima jos iz 70 tih
Bought a brand new Altima back in 2022, my wife was adamant on me getting one with the vc turbo but I ended up choosing one with a 2.5 since I’ve never been a fan of anything turbo. It’s an Altima and I’m not the usual Altima driver… I don’t race and don’t need a turbo. Plus it’s awd
This transmission is very efficient at converting power into heat. In my country it is very common to find a Clutch cover (or bowl as we call it) that has turned bluish with purple gradient when servicing a scooter because of how hot it gets
That means its not efficient. Heat causes the bearings and hydraulics to fail not to mention glazes the belt.
whos CVT is this... with a rubber belt?!
They are all belt driven 🤦♂️
@@puntachu i said with a RUBBER belt... Nissan has a steel belt and Hyundai & Kia use a steel chain.. you thought you were smart didnt you
@@ArExsTee hahahaha nicely rekt
Scooters and large motorcycles use rubber belts with steel interlaced through them, even a newer harley davidson will use a belt drive that's visible.
you can clearly see the scooter's kick stand that it's on
5 seconds later
Oh that'll be $2500
😂😂
actually i have the same scooter with over 80000 miles and no problem whatsoever
and in case if something goes wrong
then fixing it costs about 15$ here in india
Dgx fig d
Jokes on you, i have gone 559,000 miles with it. Never change anything.

Thank you so much!
Lembrei do torno HBX, melhor torno mecânico que já vi.
To all people saying CVTs suck they are actually better performing than automatic transmission. They are used in every scooter, most ATVs, side by sides also large majority of tractors, combines, heavy machinery use cvt
after seeing the film. what causes the cvt to vibrate at 40km/hour?
An imbalance in a rotating assembly, or just a guess, a belt to loose slapping around? Could be parts missing/worn/broken. They're easy enough to take apart.
a broken spring probably, maybe something fallen off?
I dont know bro but still every scooter have this problem at 42 to 46 kmph speed. Including belt drive electric stooters also
Motor rotator. Fuel.
High pressure high motor movement low presure low movement.
Using the law “centripetal force” 😊
What makes the drum to move "axially"?
Thanks.
Centrifugal force makes rollers inside drum roll away from the center, which pushes against a fixed plate, making the drum move forward.
@@gabiferreira6864 Thanks for the clarification.... Keep it up...
The best mechanism system without any other is that you just have to speed it up
Частично показана работа вариатор!
Непоказан только принцип сведЕния половинок шкива
на советском буране так работает вариатор.
Infinit amount of gear ratio 💖
not quite infinite, there are upper and lower limits to each side of the ratio.
how they ratio that? minimum maximum?
Min to max
According to the engine rpm and speed
解りやすくていいね！( ´∀｀)b♥️
On the edge of the front pulley there is a nest of rollers.The roller plays a role in adding/reducing torque to the cvt's energy.Scooter users can increase the amount of roller weight/decrease the amount of roller weight according to the suitability of the local road.The heavier the roller,the higher top speed.As the weight of the roller decreases,the engine power becomes stronger but the top speed decreases.
Example:
(1) If the road is hilly,scooter users can reduce the amount of roller weight to ensure the motor is powerful enough to climb the hilly road.
(2) If the road is long,scooter users can increase the amount of roller weight to increase top speed.
THE TOTAL WEIGHT OF THE ROLLER IS DETERMINED ACCORDING TO THE SUITABILITY OF THE SURROUNDING ROADS
High rpm is truly where they live, at least my 125cc scooter while commuting. Butter smooth at high rpms.
30 years ago just know now
I'm traveling to Thailand myself. Can't wait to hear so much broken English in person and enjoy your country
Title should be “What it’s like to have no soul”
When my mechanic told me I had a belt in the trans of a Hyundai I stopped smashing out on it
Great video but the idea sounds much better on paper than it is in real life.
This’s awesome on scooters and small bikes, awful on cars
Another reason to own a real bike! No rubber bands to snap!
This is one of the Indian scooters which lasts more than 10yrs depending on usage never heard complain here.
The gearbox will straight up not work before your to the point of actualy breaking it. Chains will snap tough
as a snowmobile owner i will tell you that the bands will never snap even when you are pushing 200+hp they will burn and start slipping and come of but they wont snap
@@einar8019 yep and as long as they're easily accessible, a relatively cheap "weak link" to replace. Not a huge fan of CVTs but they do have their applications.
@@programmingwithsunny6121 yes because a scooter does the same things as a motorcycle LOL all you goofy ass people
принцип КПП-вариатора
Tell me a normal automatic doesn’t look like it’s gonna last 100x as long as this janky shit
About the same one is just harder to fix
Normal (planetary) automatic is too bulky for scooters, though.
These last just fine for lightweight, low power vehicles like scooters. Also very light and inexpensive.
I think honda is one of the only companies that can actually build a good cvt
Toyota makes the best cvt’s
subaru better
Opened motor cycle.
A pipe to it you get air pressure for filing cylinder of your tank pipe .
Nissan owners can now feel good knowing that you have the same transmission engineering as the kid in your neighborhood barreling down the street in that Doodlebug .
Nice Demo, thanks
Worst system. I was on a highway at a speed of 70. And the belt got broken, because of best my Selfstart, fan and kick rachet also got damaged.
I had to pull my Activa 4 km away.
This is actually the worst system. Chain system is best
yeah they are constantly breaking especially in Nissan Subaru and Ford
while i have a manual for 40 years i do 180 in the autobahn and still 0 problems
yeah chains are more reliable than belts same with the timing chain that connects camshaft(s) with crankshaft and is more durable than Timing belt belt gets easily wear while chain is better stronger more durable also belts are prone to snapping or breaking which can cause serious problems to the engine and of course expensive repairs 🤑🤑🤑🤑 i agree that chain system is the best
@@epiccarguy892 I was actually talking about a two wheeler. So for two wheeler perspective also. 70 is not that much. Still just 2 month old belt got broken mid highway.
@@ragnarok9127 oh i though about cars because it also exist in cars
皮帶快斷了
Yeah they suck on SUV’s but on 4 wheelers and scooters they hold up very well and are very cheap and simple to fix if it does fail.
cvt is designed to be smooth and efficient, not for offroading, drifting and racing!
