英文摘要：

Based on the principle of variable speed transmission and characteristics of double crank mechanism and ratchet wheel mechanism, we came up with a new type of continuous non--frictional mechanical CVT. The kinematic law was studied through methods of analytic geometry and mecha- nism synthesis, and the function of transmission ratio and mechanism parameters were established. Maximal transmission ratio was the objective of the mechanism; to reach this target means to obtain optimum parameters, the structural size, double crank＇s formation and limit of transmission angle were as constraints. A computer program was worked out successfully to determine these optimum parameters.
