Provided is a CVT ring member having a nitrided layer on a surface thereof. The CVT ring member includes a chemical composition containing, by mass, C: 0.43 to 0.70%, Si: 2.50% or less, Mn: 1.00% or less, Cr: 1.50 to 4.00%, Mo: 0.50 to 3.00% and V: 1.00% or less while satisfying a relation of Formula 1: 159×C(%)+91×Si(%)+68×Cr(%)+198×Mo (%)+646≧1,000, and the balance being Fe and unavoidable impurities. The ring member has a tensile strength of 1,700 MPa or more. The nitrided layer has a surface hardness of HV800 to HV950.

A rolling apparatus includes a pair of a small rolling roller and a large rolling roller which hold a ring with the ring being sandwiched therebetween, and which roll the ring, and a tension roller; a temperature sensor which measures a temperature of the ring before rolling; a storing portion which stores, in advance, a relation between the temperature of the ring and a temperature correction coefficient for correcting a condition for rolling; and a controller which changes the condition for rolling based on the measured temperature of the ring and the stored relation so as to perform rolling processing.

When a metastable austenitic stainless steel strip with a value Md(N), which is calculated from a composition, of 20-100 is ring-rolled to a steel belt, the relationship of null0.3913Tnull0.5650Md(N)null60.46nullnull65.87 is established among a material temperature T, an equivalent strain null and the value Md(N). Due to the controlled rolling, a stainless steel belt for a continuously variable transmission is bestowed with fatigue properties similar or superior to those of a 18%-Ni maraging steel belt. The value Md(N) is defined by the equation of Md(N)null580null520Cnull2Sinull16Mnnull16Crnull23Ninull300Nnull10Mo, and the equivalent strain null is defined by the equation of Enull{square root}{square root over (4(1n(1nullR))2/3)} (R: reduction). Furthermore, the steel belt is stabilized in its quality and profile by confining a variation nullT of the material temperature T within a range of null6.4null C.

A laminated ring for use as a belt in transmitting power in a continuously variable transmission is produced by welding opposite ends of a sheet of maraging steel to produce a plurality of rings, and rolling said rings to a predetermined length. The rings are nitrided in a salt-bath nitriding process by dipping the rings in a molten salt containing 38-46% of CNOnull and 1-2% of CNnull and heated to a temperature in the range from 480 to 530null C., for a period of time ranging from 10 to 25 minutes. The nitrided rings are finally stacked into a laminated ring.
摘要:
A composite driving belt in the form of an endless flexible carrier on which is mounted a plurality of plate-like elements disposed transverse to the carrier. The carrier is formed by a plurality of endless metal bands arranged in overlying concentric relationship, at least one side of at least one of the bands having surface roughness produced, for example, by two series of fine grooves which cross each other.
