Definitions
- the present invention performs power transmission via a transmission belt wound between a driving pulley and a driven pulley, and continuously changes the wrapping radius of the transmission belt to change the transmission ratio steplessly.
- the present invention relates to a belt type continuously variable transmission.
- the transmission belt is divided into a metal belt formed by bundling a large number of metal pieces called elements or blocks, for example, with a steel band, and a non-metallic belt mainly composed of rubber or resin, for example. It can be divided roughly.
- the pulley is usually made of a metal such as steel, cast iron or aluminum alloy, so the contact portion (ie, friction surface) between the metal belt and the pulley is not worn or seized. Lubricated to prevent. Therefore, the metal belt can be said to be a wet transmission belt.
- the non-metallic belt is in contact with the pulley by rubber, resin, etc., and transmits power using the frictional force between them. Therefore, since it does not require lubrication for the contact portion between the belt and the pulley, it can be said to be a dry transmission belt.
- the belt type continuously variable transmission using the non-metallic belt does not require lubrication, and the friction coefficient of the non-metallic belt is higher than that of the metal belt, so that the number of rotations of the pulley is low or the pulley It is known that shifting is difficult or cannot be performed when rotation is stopped.
- the belt-type continuously variable transmission described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-116536 is for changing a groove width of a driving pulley, a driven pulley, a non-metallic belt wound between them, and a groove width of each pulley.
- a speed change motor is provided as a main component.
- the speed change motor is a direct current type electric motor (that is, a DC motor), and the rotation characteristics such as the rotation speed and efficiency differ depending on the rotation direction.
- the rotational speed of the speed change motor when the speed ratio of the belt type continuously variable transmission is increased is faster than the speed of the speed change motor when the speed ratio is reduced. Has been. In other words, the speed change speed in the deceleration direction can be improved. Therefore, for example, when the speed ratio of the belt-type continuously variable transmission is small, the vehicle is driven by a sudden braking operation from the running state of the vehicle. Until the vehicle suddenly stops, the speed ratio of the belt-type continuously variable transmission can be changed from a state in which the vehicle is stopped to a speed ratio that enables the vehicle to start. For this reason, it is said that the re-startability of the vehicle can be improved.
- Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-65651 discloses that in the input shaft side pulley of a belt-type continuously variable transmission using a metal belt, the friction coefficient in that region is set in another region in the region where the low gear ratio is set.
- the structure which surface-treated so that it might become high compared with is described. For this reason, when the low gear ratio is set, wear between the metal belt element and the friction surface of the input pulley can be suppressed.
- the belt type continuously variable transmission using a non-metallic belt has a higher friction coefficient than that of a metal belt. And the pulley hardly slip, and generally the pulley needs to rotate to change the gear ratio. That is, there is rotation speed dependency. Therefore, in the device described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-116536, the speed ratio of the belt-type continuously variable transmission is changed to a speed ratio at which the vehicle can start before the vehicle travels and stops. For this reason, the speed change speed in the deceleration direction is improved. However, if the rotational speed of the speed change motor is increased, energy is consumed correspondingly, so that the fuel consumption of the vehicle deteriorates or the pulley groove width is changed as the speed of the speed change motor increases. There is a possibility that the thrust required to do so becomes excessive, or the belt clamping pressure becomes excessive accordingly, and the durability of the transmission belt is lowered.
- the transmission ratio of the belt-type continuously variable transmission is set to the low-side transmission ratio where the contact surface pressure between the friction surface of the input pulley and the metal belt is the highest. This is a technique for suppressing wear between the friction surface of the input pulley and the metal belt.
- the present invention has been made paying attention to the technical problem described above, and can shift gears even when the rotation of the pulley is stopped with the stop of the vehicle, and can improve the shift speed and durability.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a belt type continuously variable transmission.
- the present invention provides a fixed sheave integrated with the rotating shaft and an axis of the rotating shaft so that each of the driving pulley and the driven pulley approaches and separates from the fixed sheave.
- Movable sheaves movable in the direction, and the facing surfaces of the sheaves are tapered surfaces that form belt winding grooves around which the transmission belt is wound, and the movable sheaves are arranged in the axial direction of the rotating shaft.
- the transmission belt is a non-metal formed of resin.
- Each tapered surface of the driven pulley is formed such that the friction coefficient of the inner part is smaller than the friction coefficient of the outer part in the radial direction thereof. And it is characterized in that they are.
- the present invention is the belt type continuously variable transmission according to the above invention, wherein the outer portion is made of a metal material and the inner portion is made of a synthetic resin material.
- radial slits are formed in the radial direction of the respective tapered surfaces of the driven pulley from the inner portion toward the outer portion, or in the radial direction from the inner portion to the outer portion.
- the belt type continuously variable transmission is characterized in that a surface treatment for roughening the tapered surfaces stepwise or continuously is performed.
- the present invention is the belt type continuously variable transmission according to the above invention, wherein the surface treatment includes a plating treatment and an etching treatment.
- this invention is a non-metallic composite belt in which the non-metallic belt has a transmission torque capacity increased by attaching a small piece of metal to the non-metallic belt as compared with the non-metallic belt.
- This is a belt type continuously variable transmission.
- each tapered surface of the driven pulley is formed so that the friction coefficient of the inner portion is smaller than the outer portion in the radial direction. Therefore, even if the rotation of each pulley stops when the wrapping radius of the transmission belt in the driven pulley is small, that is, when the gear ratio of the belt type continuously variable transmission is small, the inner side in the radial direction of the driven pulley The non-metallic belt can be slid from the portion toward the outer portion, thereby increasing the transmission ratio. In other words, the speed can be changed by sliding the non-metallic belt from the inner part to the outer part in the radial direction of the driven pulley without depending on the rotation of the pulley.
- a so-called belt return failure can be prevented or suppressed in advance.
- the non-metallic belt can be slid from the inner part toward the outer part in the radial direction of the driven pulley, so that the speed change speed in the deceleration direction can be improved and the thrust applied to the movable sheave for speed change can be suppressed. Or it can be reduced.
- By suppressing the thrust of the movable sheave it is possible to improve the durability of a non-metallic belt or a belt-type continuously variable transmission.
- the friction coefficient of the outer portion in the radial direction of the driven pulley is large, when the outer portion and the transmission belt are in contact with each other to transmit torque, specifically, a larger gear ratio than the above is used. In this case, it is possible to secure a torque capacity to be transmitted at the gear ratio.
- the outer portion has a higher coefficient of friction than the inner portion, so that slippage hardly occurs between the non-metallic belt and the pulley. Therefore, the non-metallic belt is sandwiched between the inner portion and the torque is applied.
- the thrust applied to the movable sheave can be reduced, and higher power transmission efficiency can be achieved compared to the inner portion. In other words, the upper limit of the thrust applied to the movable sheave of the driven pulley can be determined.
- the outer portion is formed of the metal material in the radial direction of the driven pulley, and the inner portion is formed of the synthetic resin material in the radial direction. Yes. Therefore, the friction coefficient of the inner part in the radial direction of the driven pulley can be made smaller than the friction coefficient of the outer part. Further, since the members forming the respective tapered surfaces of the driven pulley are divided in the radial direction, the friction coefficient in the radial direction of the driven pulley can be arbitrarily set.
- the frictional force at the contact portion between the non-metallic composite belt and the tapered surface increases the wrapping radius of the transmission belt in the driven pulley. It can be increased stepwise or continuously.
- each tapered surface is radially inward by a conventionally known surface treatment method such as plating or etching.
- the surface can be roughened stepwise or continuously toward the outside.
- the belt-type continuously variable transmission using the nonmetallic composite belt by which the metal small piece was attached to the resin nonmetallic belt Even so, the speed can be changed by sliding the non-metallic composite belt from the inner portion toward the outer portion in the radial direction of the driven pulley, and so-called belt return failure can be prevented or suppressed in advance. Accordingly, in the belt-type continuously variable transmission using the non-metallic composite belt, the speed change speed in the deceleration direction can be improved, and the thrust applied to the movable sheave for speed change can be suppressed or reduced. By suppressing the thrust of the movable sheave, the durability of the non-metallic composite belt and the belt-type continuously variable transmission can be improved.
