摘要:
Disclosed is an improved laminated metallic belt consisting of at least two layers of an endless metallic band for use in a torque transmission device, which can transmit torque between two pulleys having variable effective radii, in combination with a plurality of metallic blocks which have surfaces contacting the innermost layer of the laminated metallic belt and are arranged along the laminated metallic belt. The metallic belt according to the present invention may be made of precipitation hardening martensitic stainless steel or maraging steel which have favorable properties as to toughness, mechanical strength and the adaptability for welding required for making an endless laminated metallic belt, but lack the surface hardness to ensure relatively favorable durability. The durability of the steel is improved according to the present invention by a nitride layer and/or an electroless nickel plating layer formed on the side edges of the endless metallic band. Optionally, the innermost and/or the outermost surface of the laminated metallic belt may be hardened in a similar manner.

A power transmitting V-belt comprising an endless metal band mounted on supporting surfaces of a multiplicity of V-shaped metal blocks so linked to one another that adjacent blocks are rotatable relative to each other around an axis which is located substantially on the block contact surface of the band that engages the supporting surfaces of the metal blocks. This minimizes relative slippage between the metal band and the metal blocks during running of the V-belt.

A power transmitting V-belt comprising an endless metal band held by stopper members on a multiplicity of V-shaped metal blocks which are linked to one another, wherein a pair of free ends of each stopper member are retained in a pair of retaining grooves on the associated metal block, which pair of retaining grooves include a tapered guide section adapted to guide the free ends of the stopper member from its free state to its stressed state retained in the retaining grooves at the time of mounting the stopper member to the metal block. This simplifies the assembling procedure.

A V-belt transmission is provided which comprises two pulleys, an endless metallic V-belt operatively positioned between the two pulleys, a plurality of V-shaped members positioned with the V-belt located between the arms of the V and a stopper member for engaging the V-shaped member to prevent the V-shaped member from coming off of the V-belt. The V-shaped member includes grooves in a wall of the arms of the V at a position below or inside the plane of the inner surface of the V-belt. Further, the stopper member includes a middle portion which is positioned above or outside the plane of the outer surface of the V-belt and end portions for engaging the grooves at a point below or inside the plane of the inner surface of the V-belt. The groove in the V-shaped member is located on the outside of the arms of the V and has a first portion which extends in the lengthwise direction of the V-belt and a second portion which extends perpendicular to the surface of the V-belt. The end portion of the stopper member has first and second portions, the first portion engaging the first portion of the groove and the second portion engaging the second portion of the groove. The middle and end portions of the stopper member are integral.

A transmission apparatus for a vehicle comprising a casing, an input shaft, an output shaft parallel to the input shaft having at least four gear trains interposed between the two shafts through respective clutches, at least one of the respective clutches being an in-common clutch used in common to two of the at least four gear trains, and at least one selection mechanism provided separately from the common clutch. The two gear trains are those differentiated in change speed stage one from another by three stages. The two gear trains are arranged so that in the case of power transmission through any selected gear train other than the two gear trains, such one of the two gear trains that has a change speed stage nearer the change speed stage of the selected gear train has been selected by the selection mechanism.
摘要:
An automatic transmission apparatus in which a machine casing is provided on one side thereof with an input shaft connected to an internal combustion engine and with a torque convertor connected to the input shaft and is provided at the interior thereof with an output shaft in parallel with the input shaft. The input shaft and the output shaft are interconnected through a high-speed transmission system having a high-speed clutch and a low-speed transmission system having a low-speed clutch. The input shaft is elongated to within the machine casing so as to form a first driving shaft of direct coupled type integrally connected to the input shaft and is provided at its elongated end portion with the high-speed clutch. A tubular form of second driving shaft is connected to the output side of the torque convertor and extends along the first driving shaft and is substantially concentric therewith. The low-speed clutch is interposed between an input side portion and an output side portion of the tubular shaft.

Herein disclosed is a V-belt transmission device in which a plurality of substantially V-shaped metal members (2) and a plurality of resilient metal members (3) are alternately mounted to an endless metal belt member made of band steel and are in contact with each other to constitute a V-belt which is subjected to a tension between a driving V-pulley (5) and a driven V-pulley (6), thereby effecting a torque transmission between both the pulleys. Each of the V-shaped metal members (2) is provided with a substantially U-shaped groove (7) directed to the outside. Each of the resilient metal members is formed as a hollow roller to engage with recessed surfaces (8) which are formed in opposing surfaces of a pair of the V-shaped metal members (2).
