[Electric Boats] RE: CVT Transmission

 

Jason, Your sun gear idea is certainly novel. And, I think its drawbacks would override any benefits. For instance, if this is so good, then why don't we see ICE engines attached to one? And, you'd need a heavy gearcase filled with oil. Plus, electric motors can be quickly reversed. Finally, most electric motors can exceed their nameplate speed for some amount of time.
