A Segmented Ground Gear Transmission (SGGT) is a two-stage epicyclical planetary transmission that converts input angular velocity and toque to a continuously variable output varying the effective diameter of ground stage ring gear. The ground stage ring gear is expanded and contracted in segments, half occupied by planets and half free. The segments occupied by planets transfer torque to ground, but do not move except in small angle twist for section curvature correction, while the free segments move in rotation to close the gaps between segments, but do not carry load. The ground stages of the two-stage planets displace to maintain correct mesh with and to correct curvature errors in the sections. The load-bearing segments and free segments exchange roles so the planets can rotate and orbit continuously for extended periods. Anti-friction rolling contacts are used throughout.
