Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a variable and differential output driving system. SOLUTION: The driving system adapted to continuously provide variable and differential output may include a power source system and first, second and third variable driving units coupled to the power source system. The driving system can also include first and second planetary gear assemblies, each planetary gear assembly including a sun gear, a ring gear, a carrier and a plurality of planetary elements. The first variable driving unit can be mechanically coupled to the first planetary gear assembly. The second variable driving unit can be mechanically coupled to the second planetary gear assembly. The third variable driving unit can be mechanically coupled to the first planetary gear assembly and the second planetary gear assembly. The driving system can also include first and second output shafts, coupled respectively, to the first and second planetary gear assemblies. COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
