Therefore the occasion that only is fixed in sub-shell 101b on tor-con one side cantilever ground compared with the routine drg supporting base 104 like that of the prior art of Fig. 5 is come, the rigidity of drg supporting base 8 improves by leaps and bounds and its distortion is inhibited, can positively remain in the tram to bearing 11, the result keeps suitable belt all the time and aligns, prevent because the problem that the monolateral contact of metal belt 17 causes, the early stage deterioration of the conical surface of metal belt 17 or belt pulley 7,15 for example, and then can improve the durability of stepless speed changing mechanism.
Because as shown in fig. 1, the other end (left end among the figure) of elementary axle 3 is bearing in housing 1 one sides via bearing 31 on the other hand, so be necessary to be that benchmark is located an end (right-hand member among the figure) of elementary axle 3 along radial direction with housing 1 also.In the present embodiment, because as mentioned above by the 1b of seam portion, 8b is directly 8 pairs of housings of drg supporting base, 1 location, so via sub-shell 101b the occasion of 104 couples of main casing 101a of drg supporting base (housing 1 that is equivalent to present embodiment) location is come like that compared with the prior art example shown in Fig. 5, the positional precision of drg supporting base 8 improves, one end (right-hand member among the figure) of elementary axle 3 is that benchmark is located along radial direction with housing 1, the two ends of the elementary axle 3 of result are that benchmark is located with housing 1 all, the accuracy of alignment of elementary axle 3 improves, and also has above-mentioned belt to align and can further optimize such effect.
In addition in the present embodiment as shown in Figure 3, the installation of reaction axle bearing seat 9 pairs of drg supporting bases 8 is by the cooperation to the open end of drg supporting base 8, and just seam connects (retaining element) and carries out.As concrete being constructed as follows.At first on reaction axle bearing seat 9, with the face-off face of drg supporting base 8 on form the insertion bead 43 of annular, the opening edge of drg supporting base 8 forms and inserts mouthful.And the insertion bead 43 of reaction axle bearing seat 9 matches with the opening edge of drg supporting base 8.
If connect 9 pairs of drg supporting base 8 combinations of reaction axle bearing seat by seam as mentioned above, then along with its installation, also realize simultaneously these location.Thereby, can make the center 0 of an end side of the elementary axle 3 that supports by drg supporting base 8 by this location 1End side center 0 with the input shaft 2 that supports by reaction axle bearing seat 9 2Consistent accurately.The accuracy of alignment of input shaft 2 greatly improves whereby owing to can reduce and the meshing error of the integrally formed sun wheels 34 of input shaft 2 and miniature gears 35, so can realize aspect the reduction of the bad abnormal sound that causes of these engagement more favourable.
Though in the present embodiment, specialize as for motor vehicle continuously variable unit of FF, but the vehicle form of utilization does not add qualification, can for example specialize in the bearing arrangement of for motor vehicle continuously variable unit of FR (front engine rear drive) yet.
Moreover stepless change machine of the present invention is not limited to vehicle usefulness, can certainly apply to other purposes.
Though in addition in the above-described embodiments, be taken as the gamut from anti-secondary axle 14 1 sides extends to secondary axle 14 1 sides by angle [alpha] and angle beta from the 1b of seam portion, the 8b of drg supporting base 8 bearing loads, an extension assigns to block the formation of the tension force of metal belt 17 thus, but in a word if this seam 1b of portion, 8b at least from the 2nd imaginary line L2 to the 14 1 side settings of secondary axle, just on position, be provided with, just can obtain and above-mentioned same action effect facing to secondary axle 14 1 sides.Thereby, also can be for example shown in long and two-short dash line among Fig. 4, form notch part 41 and partly remove seam peripheral part 8b in anti-secondary axle 14 1 sides of seam peripheral part 8b.If constitute like this, then can also obtain to realize the expendable weight of drg supporting base 8, and then realize the such effect of expendable weight of continuously variable unit.
