Title:
TOROIDAL TYPE STEPLESS TRANSMISSION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2008/001839
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A toroidal type stepless transmission where a pair of guidance surfaces (120, 120) is provided at trunnions (15). The guidance surfaces face to each other, are perpendicular to the center axis of rotation of a power roller (11), and extend in the direction perpendicular to pivot shafts (14). When a tangential force in the direction along the pivot shafts (14) acts on the power roller (11), the outer peripheral surface (110) of an outer ring (28) can be in contact with the guidance surfaces (120, 120). Thus, rolling of the power roller together with the outer ring can be smoothly guided relative to the trunnions by an inexpensive and simple structure with an offset of a shaft section supporting the power roller avoided. The toroidal type transmission is easily worked.
