Business Summary
Torvec, Inc. is a development stage company specializing in automotive technology. The Company owns many United States and international patent properties protecting inventions relating to five different areas of automotive technology: steering drive for tracked vehicles, infinitely-variable transmission, hydraulic pump and motor, constant velocity joint and spherical gearing. The FasTrack prototype vehicle is a new type of tracked vehicle that is designed to steers as easily as a car. This new vehicle is designed to combine the high-speed capabilities of trucks and cars with the high-traction capabilities of tracked vehicles. The Company's infinitely variable transmission will incorporate a hydraulic pump/motor machine, which, like the infinitely variable transmission, is designed to be simpler, smaller and lighter than other commercially available pump/motors having comparable performance specifications.
