I figuered 30 years back that two cones were likely best

for transmissions. en.wikipedia.org...
Check out Cone CVT's . But in reality; these have wear to them and are comlex for nothing where after pondering for half an hour or so; I figuered a hydraulic pump driven by the engine or whatever should pump to two diferent ratio of hydraulic engines with a control valve governing the appropriate supply ratio needed and that there is as simple and as perfect that I assume you will get.

wow, good to know that.

Thanks for the post. I have no idea what you just said. None.

I'll explain in another way; the pump is driving two different ratio hydraulic rotary turbines; one is low gear ratio and the other is high. then having a governing valve; you can direct thepressure ; somewhat like yoour shower regularor valve.

I personally don't like CVT's, whats wrong with a good old gearbox

Actually tou can also put tension apon gears to create constant levee to them by lower ratio gears added to this cancelling the counter force. Good night

Is english your second/third/fourth language? If you composed better sentences and tried harder to be clear then I don't think you would be criticized so much. It's hard to understand you!

But I'll admit that I know nothing about hydraulics.
