Lecture – 04
Infinitely Variable Drive System for Machine Tools
Infinitely Variable Drive
Advantages
Possible to attain optimum cutting condition.
Important in reduction of handling time, because speed and feed can be changed
without stopping the machine.
Constant cutting speed can be obtained for stepped shaft and irregular contour.
Improved tool life and better surface quality.
Drives of friction type run more quietly than gear or chain drives.
Classification Of Infinitely Variable Drive
Mechanical Infinitely Variable Drive
•Friction drive: The most elementary type of drive, in which a friction roller (diameter
d) drives a large disc. Through the axial displacement of roller A (driver), the effective
diameter of disk B (driven) is varied infinitely and thus the transmission ratio, i is
changed continuously.
Mechanical Infinitely Variable Drive
•The friction material of the driving roller should be softer than that of the driven disc, in
order to ensure that the former remains round, even if the driven disc is stalled by an
overload. The driving roller is, therefore, often covered by a leather or fiber ring, whilst
the disc is made of steel.
•In view of the relatively small area over which the friction force between the roller and
the disc is transmitted, and because of the finite width of the driving roller, a certain
amount of slip cannot be avoided. For this reason, such drives are only suitable for
transmitting relatively small torques, and are limited to reduction ratios of not more
than 1 : 4.
Mechanical Infinitely Variable Drive
•Double disc friction drive
Mechanical Infinitely Variable Drive
•Friction drive using cones
Heynau Drive
• Consists of two twin cones and an intermediate link which is a
hardened ground ring.
• When two halves of one twin cone move apart, other twin cone
come closer, so that ground ring is always in tight contact.
• Ensures continuous transfer of energy and motion.
• The hardened ground ring, 3 made of high alloy steel is in contact
with the tapered surfaces of two twin cones, 1a/1b and 2a/2b,
respectively.
Heynau Drive
• By simultaneous axial displacement of the cones la and 2b, it is possible to vary the
transmission ratio between input shaft I and output shaft II from an initial speed
reduction ratio (Fig. a), to a 1 : 1 transmission (Fig. b) and to a speed increase (Fig. c).

•The effective diameters d1 and d2 of the discs 1 and 2 on the
driving and driven shafts are constant, the steel spheres 4
supported on the shafts 3 acting as intermediate members.
•By changing the angular position of the shafts 3, the effective
driving radii r of the spheres are varied.

• The transmission ratio between driving and driven
shaft is:

•The transmission ratio is, therefore, independent of the effective disc diameter and
depends entirely upon the angular position (α) of the shafts 3 which carry the
spheres 4.
P.I.V (Positive Infinitely Variable) Drive
• An endless chain transmits the torque between two chain wheels with variable
pitch circle diameters.
• Each chain wheel consists of a pair of cones which can be axially displaced (1a/1b
and 2a/2b, respectively).
• The teeth of the chain wheels are produced on the conical surfaces by the
machining of radial grooves
