摘要： When the solenoid valves constituting the transmission ratio control valve should fail electrically, the toroidal continuously variable transmission shifts the transmission ratio toward the speed increasing side to avoid possible dangers of a car while traveling and at the same time cancels variations of the spool valve movement caused by the control oil pressures of the solenoid valve. The two solenoid valves that control the oil pressures acting on the both ends of the transmission ratio control valve having a spool valve are of opposite types, a normally open type and a normally closed type. The duty A and duty B for these solenoid valves are set to equal values (S11). Even when any of the solenoid valves are electrically failed, the transmission ratio of the toroidal speed change unit in the toroidal continuously variable transmission is shifted toward the speed increasing side, which is a safe side for the running car. The duty signal for one of the solenoid valves is output through a timer count (S13) so that it is 180 degrees out of phase with the duty signal for the other solenoid valve (S14). Hence, variations of the spool valve movement caused by the control oil pressures acting on the both ends of the transmission ratio control valve can be offset.

摘要： A toroidal continuous variable transmission is disclosed in which a supporting shaft for mounting a power roller on a trunnion is kept from leaning thereby helping to ensure a stable speed ratio irrespective of operating conditions. A supporting shaft 5 is mounted to a trunnion 4 for pivoting movement and supports rotatably thereon on a rolling body 30 of a power roller 2. The supporting shaft 5 is press fitted in a fit structure 60 of a back plate 31 so as to form an integral unit. The back plate 31 is forced against the trunnion 4 by the action of a thrust force that is applied from the rolling body 30 through rolling elements 57. This suppresses the lean of the supporting shaft 5 relative to the trunnion 4, resulting in elimination speed ratio variations which might otherwise occur owing to a deviation of the rotational axis of the rolling body 30 in a direction along the pivotal shaft of the trunnion.

摘要： A control unit is imparted a function in which the engagement of a high-speed clutch which had been in disengagement until then is started (or the energization of a high-speed clutch solenoid switch valve is put to ON) before a change-speed of a toroidal continuously variable transmission has reached an optimal value for performance of a mode switch (a point A, for example, 0.46 in a speed increasing ratio) or at a point B (for example, 0.6 in the speed increasing ratio). As a result of this, the problem can be solved.

摘要： A continuously variable transmission apparatus includes: an input shaft, an output shaft, a toroidal continuously variable transmission, a gear-type differential unit including a plurality of gears, and a controller. The controller calculates a torque actually passing through the toroidal continuously variable transmission to obtain a deviation of the torque from a target value and adjusts a transmission ratio of the toroidal continuously variable transmission to eliminate the deviation. The controller stops the adjustment of the transmission ratio when the torque is not stable.

摘要： A sleeve 28 making up a gear ratio control valve 21 is driven by not only a stepping motor 29 but also a secondary actuator 47. Pressure oil is made free to be introduced into the secondary actuator 47 through a manual oil pressure switching valve 37 which is switched over by a gearshift. Then, when the gearshift is operated from a non-running state to a running state, a gear ratio of a toroidal type continuously variable transmission is corrected by a predetermined amount by driving the sleeve 28 by means of the secondary actuator 47. As a result, while improving characteristic of a vehicle when starting from rest, the vehicle can be prevented from being reduced in speed unintentionally excessively even when the gearshift is operated while running.
