Title:
METALLIC BELT FOR STEPLESS TRANSMISSION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/196254
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A metallic belt for a stepless transmission is configured in such a manner that the saddle surfaces and locking edges of a metallic element for the metallic belt are formed at substantially the same radial position. A metallic element (14) for a metallic belt (11) which is passed over a drive pulley and a driven pulley and transmits drive force between the pulleys has: rocking edges (19) formed at the radial outer end of the front surface of a body section (15), the rocking edges (19) serving as support points for pitching; and a recess (20) formed therein, the recess (20) extending from the front surface of a neck section (16) to the front surface of the body section (15). As a result of this configuration, a gap which occurs between front and rear metallic elements (14) either when the positions of front and rear metallic elements (14) are radially displaced from each other or when the front and rear metallic elements (14) rotate relative to each other about the front-rear axis is reduced to minimum, thereby reducing a bending load acting on the metallic elements (14) and minimizing a reduction in the power transmission efficiency.
