Was called Perbury is now Torotrak IVT - stepless ratio changes from reverse to high overdrive using one planetary gear set and a toroidal CVT. The R-R Pegasus jet engine uses one to run the 70Kw alternator at constant speed. http://www.torotrak.com/technology.html >> There ain't half been some clever bastards.
