- the preload applying mechanism elastically presses each outer ring 35 of the pair of ball bearings 33 inward in the axial direction to apply the preload in the axial direction to the pair of ball bearings 33. For this reason, for example, even when a dimensional difference occurs between the pair of ball bearings 33 based on individual differences or secular change, the dimensional difference is absorbed by the elastic deformation of the respective disc springs 36.
- the preload of the pair of ball bearings 33 can be maintained at an appropriate value. Thereby, when the toroidal continuously variable transmission is operated, variation in the deformation amount of the pair of ball bearings 33 based on the pressing force generated by the pressing device 12a can be suppressed, so that the pair of ball bearings 33 can rotate freely.
- a pair of axially outer sides of the inner disk 8b is located between a pair of cavities existing between the inner axial surface of the pair of outer disks 3 and the pair of outer axial surfaces of the inner disk 8b. Variations in the position and surface pressure of the traction portion between the side surface and the peripheral surface of the power roller 9 can be suppressed, and the transmission efficiency of the toroidal continuously variable transmission can be improved. Further, when the toroidal continuously variable transmission is operated, the preload of the pair of ball bearings 33 can be prevented from becoming excessive, and the durability of the pair of ball bearings 33 can be ensured satisfactorily. The durability of the toroidal continuously variable transmission can be secured satisfactorily. The reason for this will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3 in addition to FIG.
- the force (normal force) Fc applied to the pair of disk elements 7a of the inner disk 8b based on the pressing force generated by the pressing device 12a is several tens kN ( Based on this force Fc, the pair of disk elements 7a has a contact point with the tip surface of each convex portion 32 of the annular member 25 as a fulcrum (about several tenths of a millimeter). Elastically deforms.
- the circumferential surface of the power roller 9 is in rolling contact with the radially inner half of the pair of axially outer surfaces of the inner disk 8b, the inner diameter side step surface 30 of the pair of disk elements 7a is axially Elastically deforms in the inward direction.
- Such elastic deformation of the pair of disk elements 7a is greatest when the peripheral surface of the power roller 9 is in rolling contact with the small-diameter end of the axially outer surface of the pair of disk elements 7a. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3, when the preload adjustment of the pair of ball bearings 33 that rotatably support the pair of disk elements 7a is performed by the pair of shim plates 37, the preload of each ball bearing 33 is excessive. There is a possibility. Further, the elastic deformation amount of the pair of disk elements 7a is larger in the circumferential direction than in the phase where the power roller 9 is present and not present.
- the preload adjustment of the pair of ball bearings 33 is performed by the pair of shim plates 37
- the preload of the respective ball bearings 33 becomes non-uniform in the circumferential direction
- the inner ring raceway of each ball bearing 33 and The rolling element load applied to the outer ring raceway may also be non-uniform in the circumferential direction.
- the assembly of the toroidal continuously variable transmission is performed. There may be a change in dimensions between the time of operation and the time of operation.
- each ball bearing is associated with the thermal expansion of the components of the toroidal continuously variable transmission during operation of the toroidal continuously variable transmission.
- the 33 preload may be excessive.
- the bearing life of each of the pair of ball bearings 33 may be significantly reduced.
- the axially outer end surfaces of the outer rings 35 of the pair of ball bearings 33 and the inner diameter side step surfaces 30 of the pair of disk elements 7a are provided.
- the pair of disc springs 36 sandwiched between the pair of ball bearings 33 adjust the preload. For this reason, even when the inner diameter side step surfaces 30 of the pair of disk elements 7a are elastically deformed in the axially inward direction, the disc springs 36 are elastically deformed, whereby the pair of disk elements The elastic deformation of 7a can be absorbed, and the preload of each ball bearing 33 can be prevented from becoming excessive.
- the rolling load applied to the inner ring raceway and the outer ring raceway of the pair of ball bearings 33 can be made substantially uniform in the circumferential direction.
- the thermal expansion of the components of the toroidal continuously variable transmission can be absorbed during operation of the toroidal continuously variable transmission.
- each outer ring 35 is fitted into each fitting surface portion 29 of the pair of disk elements 7a with a gap fit, so that the pressing device 12a is generated during operation of the toroidal continuously variable transmission. Even when at least one of the pair of disk elements 7a is elastically deformed in the direction of reducing the diameter based on the pressing force, it is possible to prevent the preload of at least one of the pair of ball bearings 33 from becoming excessive. Therefore, according to the toroidal continuously variable transmission of this example, the bearing life of the pair of ball bearings 33 can be sufficiently ensured.
