Definitions
- the present invention relates to a continuously variable transmission, and more particularly to a V-belt continuously variable transmission for a vehicle.
- the continuously variable transmission includes a driving pulley, a driven pulley, and a belt wound between the two pulleys.
- the speed of the continuously variable transmission is changed by changing the belt winding diameters of the driving bullies and the driven buries in opposite directions.
- the ratio is continuously variable. Therefore, there is an advantage that there is no gear shift shock and smooth running can be realized.
- 5-28013 discloses a drive mechanism that changes the belt winding diameter of a driving pulley and a driven bury, and a belt winding diameter of both pulleys changes in opposite directions.
- the drive mechanism is linked to change the gear ratio so that the belt is wound around both pulleys so that the slack side of the belt becomes larger than the belt tension generated in accordance with the gear ratio.
- a continuously variable transmission including a tension generating mechanism for pressing.
- This tension generating mechanism is composed of an arm swingably supported by the transmission case, a tension roller rotatably supported at the end of the arm, and an arm in a direction in which the tension roller presses the back side of the belt on the loose side of the belt.
- a tension roller is rotatably attached to the tip of the arm, and the tension roller is driven by a drive burr in the case of a tension generating mechanism in which the arm is rotated and urged by a panel to press the tension roller against the belt.
- a drive burr in the case of a tension generating mechanism in which the arm is rotated and urged by a panel to press the tension roller against the belt.
- the tension roller may interfere with the pulley at the highest speed ratio. Therefore, it is difficult to set the tension roller so as not to interfere with the pulley at all speed ratios. Further, if the distance between the drive pulley and the driven buries is increased, the tension roller can be set so as not to interfere with the pulley at all speed ratios. This causes a problem that the transmission becomes large.
- an object of the present invention is to provide a continuously variable transmission that can reliably prevent interference between a tension roller and a pulley at all speed ratios while solving the above-described problems. Disclosure of the invention
- the present invention provides a variable speed ratio mechanism that winds a belt between a driving pulley and a driven pulley, and makes the belt winding diameter of both pulleys variable in opposite directions to each other.
- the tensioner device includes: a tension roller that presses against the loose side of the belt from the outside; a swing arm that is swingably attached to a transmission case; A continuously variable transmission comprising: at least one link connecting a roller and the arm; and urging means for urging the arm to swing in a direction in which the tension roller presses the belt. .
- variable speed ratio mechanism has only a function of changing the belt winding diameter of each pulley in the reverse direction, and separately provides a belt tension so that the belt does not slip on the pulley.
- a tensioner device is provided.
- the tensioner device is A desired belt tension is obtained by pressing the loose side of the belt from the outside with a tension roller. The reason why the loose side of the belt is pressed from the outside is to prevent excessive tension from acting on the belt, to increase the length of the belt wound around the pulley, and to increase the transmission efficiency.
- the tension roller is not directly mounted on the arm that is swingably supported by the transmission case, but is mounted via one or more links.
- the link structure can have a degree of freedom or more. Therefore, at each speed ratio from the highest speed ratio to the lowest speed ratio, the tension roller can automatically move to a position where it does not interfere with the pulley. Interference with the pulley can be reliably prevented. Further, it is not necessary to increase the center distance between the driving pulley and the driven pulley in order to prevent interference between the tension roller and the pulley, so that a compact continuously variable transmission can be realized. It is desirable that the pivot point of the arm be provided on the outer diameter side of the drive pulley and closer to the drive pulley than the driven pulley.
- the angle between the arm and the link is smaller at the low speed ratio than at the intermediate speed ratio or the high speed ratio, and the tension roller presses strongly against the belt. Be killed. Therefore, the belt tension at the low speed ratio can be made larger than that at the high speed ratio, which helps to improve the transmission efficiency and the belt life.
- the structure is simplest if the spring for urging the arm in the direction in which the tension roller presses the slack side of the belt from the outside is used as the urging means for urging the arm to oscillate. Yes, low cost.
- a compression spring other than a tension spring can be used, and a torsion panel may be provided on the swing shaft of the arm.
- the urging means for oscillating the arm a spring for urging the arm in a direction in which the tension roller presses the slack side of the belt from the outside, and a rotational force of the arm are used. It is desirable to provide an assist motor that adjusts the pressing force of the tension roller. That is, the tension roller is pressed against the belt with only the spring. When this is done, the spring force changes proportionally according to the amount of deflection, making it impossible to adjust to the desired belt tension according to the gear ratio.
- the belt tension can be adjusted to an arbitrary value by adding or subtracting the assist motor force to or from the spring force.
- the belt tension is obtained by adding or subtracting the assist force to or from the spring force, the belt tension can be varied over a wide range even when the assist torque is relatively small.
- an arc-shaped gear portion is formed at the tip of the arm, and a pinion gear that meshes with the gear portion is driven by the assist motor as described in claim 5.
- the pivot axis of the arm may be driven by the assist motor all night. In the former case, the driving torque of the motor is small.
- a first spring and a second spring are provided in the tensioner device, and the urging force of the first spring and the urging force of the second spring are added to the arm and applied to the arm.
- the belt pressing force by the first spring is set to be large at the highest speed ratio and the lowest speed ratio, and to be small at the intermediate speed ratio.
- the second spring is formed of a compression spring having one end rotatably supported by the transmission case and the other end rotatably connected to the arm.
- the second urging force of the arm is determined by the speed ratio so that the rotation urging force of the arm in the belt pressing direction by the second spring is greater than that of the second spring at the highest speed ratio and the lowest speed ratio.
- the direction of the spring changes. In other words, the direction of the second spring is changed by utilizing the fact that the arm moves with the change of the gear ratio.
- the first spring and the second spring have opposite belt tension characteristics due to the change in the speed ratio. Therefore, even if the first spring alone causes an excessive tension at the lowest speed ratio and the highest speed ratio or an insufficient tension at the intermediate speed ratio, the belt tension at the intermediate speed ratio is reduced by the action of the second spring. Increase or increase the minimum speed ratio and maximum speed ratio Can be reduced. Therefore, by using the first spring and the second spring together, insufficient tension at the intermediate speed ratio and excessive tension at the minimum speed ratio and the maximum speed ratio can be eliminated, and belt tension with optimal characteristics can be provided. it can.
- the intermediate speed ratio does not necessarily have to be the median of the lowest speed ratio and the highest speed ratio, but may be any speed ratio near the center of the lowest speed ratio and the highest speed ratio.
- the connection point between the second spring and the arm at the highest speed ratio and the lowest speed ratio is on the side opposite to the belt with respect to the straight line connecting one end of the second spring and one end of the arm.
- the second spring may be arranged so as to be positioned.
- variable gear ratio mechanism in the present invention, the transmission gear of the drive pulley and the driven pulley are driven by a single transmission motor via a gear mechanism. It is desirable that the transmission gears be rotated, and the rotation of the transmission gears drive the pole screw mechanisms provided on the respective pulleys to move the movable sheave in the axial direction. In this case, the movable sheaves of both pulleys can be operated synchronously and stably in opposite directions.

- the tension roller 51 is attached to the arm 53 via the link 52 so that the tension roller 51 does not interfere with the pulleys 11 and 21. The reason will be described with reference to FIGS. That is, if the tension roller 51 is directly attached to the arm 53 as in the conventional case, the tension roller 51 moves on a rotation locus about the swing shaft 53 a of the arm 53, so that the continuously variable transmission is not used. When shifting from Low to High, the tension roller 51 may interfere with one of the pulleys.
- the link structure is not limited to the two-degree-of-freedom link structure, but may be a three-degree-of-freedom link structure by using two links.
- the swing shaft 53 a of the arm 53 is arranged near the drive pulley 11 for the following reason. That is, as shown in FIGS. 9 to 11, the vertical pressing load T1 applied to the V-belt 15 from the tension roller 51 changes with the change in the speed ratio, and this pressing load T1 Proportional belt tension occurs.
- the pressing load T1 is given by the vector sum of the spring load T2 of the spring 54 and the load T3 in the direction perpendicular thereto. In this case, the biasing force by Assistmo 55 was ignored.
- a tensioner device 60 is provided with a first spring 64 and a second spring 67, and an arm 63 is provided with the urging force of both springs 64, 67 added thereto. It is a point. In this case, do not use the assist motor.
- the tensioner device 60 includes a tension roller 61, and the tension roller 61 is swingably supported by an arm 63 via a link 62.
- the swing shaft 63 a of the arm 63 is supported at a position above the drive pulley 11 of the transmission case 6.
- a locking shaft 63 b projects from the side surface of the tip of the arm 63, and one end of a tension spring (first spring) 64 is engaged with the shaft 63 b. Has been stopped.
- the other end of the tension spring 64 is locked to a shaft 65 provided in the transmission case 6. Therefore, the arm 63 is rotationally biased in a direction in which the tension roller 61 presses the loose side of the V-belt 15 inward.
- the link 62 has a shaft 62 a at one end thereof rotatably attached to the tip of the arm 62, and a center shaft 61 a of the tension roller 61 rotatably mounted at the other end 62 b. Supported.
- a connecting shaft 63c protrudes from a side surface near the distal end of the arm 63, and one end of a telescopic guide 66 is rotatably connected to the shaft 63c.
- the other end of the telescopic guide 66 is rotatably connected to a shaft 68 provided in the transmission case 6.
- a compression spring (second spring) 67 is interposed in the expansion / contraction guide 66.
- the compression spring 67 is provided with an expansion / contraction guide 66 to prevent twisting or bending even if its orientation changes. Is guided only in the direction of expansion and contraction.
- FIG. 21 shows the change in belt tension when only the compression spring 67 is used
- FIG. 22 shows the change in belt tension when both springs are used together.
- the belt length has no margin at the highest speed ratio and the lowest speed ratio
- the amount of deflection of the V belt 15 by the tension roller 61 is small, and the tension roller 61 It does not sink between pulleys 11 and 21.
- the intermediate speed ratio there is a margin in the belt length as shown in Fig. 18, so the amount of deflection of the V-belt 15 by the tension port 61 is large, and the tension roller 61 is connected to the pulleys 11 and 2. It sinks in between one.
- the fulcrum 65 of the tension spring 64 on the transmission case side is located on the opposite side of the V-belt 15. Therefore, the tension force of the tension spring 61 is
- the belt tension due to the tension spring 64 is the smallest at the intermediate speed ratio, and the highest speed ratio and the lowest speed ratio and the intermediate speed ratio, as shown in Fig. 20. The difference between the belt tension and the ratio is large.
- the compression spring 67 is disposed near a straight line L connecting the fulcrum 68 on the transmission case side and the pivot fulcrum 63a of the arm 63.
- the connection point 63c of the compression spring 67 and the arm 63 is located on the opposite side of the belt from the straight line L, and at the intermediate speed ratio, the connection point 63c is It is located closer to the belt than straight line L. Therefore, the spring force of the compression spring 67 acts in a direction (B direction) separating the tension roller 61 from the V-belt 15 at the highest speed ratio and the lowest speed ratio, and presses the V-belt 15 at the intermediate speed ratio. In the direction (A direction). That is, as shown in FIG. 21, the belt tension by the compression spring 67 is positive (pressing side) at the intermediate speed ratio, but negative (tensile side) at the highest speed ratio and the lowest speed ratio.
- the difference in belt tension between the highest speed ratio, the lowest speed ratio, and the intermediate speed ratio becomes smaller, and good tension characteristics are obtained.
- the belt tension at the intermediate speed ratio is set to the minimum value (for example, 70 ON) that does not cause slippage on the V-belt 15
- the maximum speed ratio and the minimum speed ratio are about 95 to 100 ON To prevent excessive tension. Therefore, it is possible to achieve both the prevention of the slip of the belt and the improvement of the life of the belt.
- the radius of the tension spring 64 is the same between the maximum speed ratio and the minimum speed ratio, but the belt tension is slightly higher at the minimum speed ratio than at the maximum speed ratio, as is clear from FIG.
- the driving shaft 63 a of the arm 63 is disposed on the drive pulley 11 side.
- the connection point 63c between the compression spring 67 and the arm 63 is located on the opposite side of the straight line L at the highest speed ratio and the lowest speed ratio, and is closer than the straight line L at the intermediate speed ratio.
- the position is not limited to this, and the belt may be located on the side opposite to the straight line L irrespective of the gear ratio. May be placed.
- connection point 63c is linear L at the highest speed ratio and the lowest speed ratio. It is preferable that the belt tension is set at a position farther away from the belt because the compression spring 67 can reduce the belt tension at the highest speed ratio and the lowest speed ratio.
- the belt tension by the compression spring 67 at the intermediate speed ratio does not need to be positive (pressing side), but may be negative or zero.
- the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment.
- the swing fulcrum of the arms 53 and 63 need not be on the outer diameter side of the driving pulley 11 and may be provided coaxially with the driving pulley 11 or the driven pulley 21.
- a force in which one end of the arms 53, 63 is swingably supported by the transmission case 6, and the links 52, 62 are rotatably connected to the other end Absent.
- an intermediate portion of the arms 53, 63 may be swingably supported by the transmission case 6, one end may be connected to the links 52, 62, and the other end may be connected to a biasing means. .
- the connecting portions between the links 52, 62 and the tension rollers 51, 61 and the connecting portions between the links 52, 62 and the arms 53, 63 are also located at both ends of the links 52, 62. It does not need to be a department.
- the spring 53 and the assist motor 55 are used as means for urging the arm 53 in the belt pressing direction.
- a hydraulic / pneumatic cylinder / solenoid is used instead of the assist motor. It is also possible.
