Abstract:
A micro-traction drive includes an inner ring that is formed in a cylindrical shape and is supported so as to be rotatable about a rotation axis; an outer ring formed in a cylindrical shape having a larger diameter than the inner ring; a plurality of rolling elements rolling while being in contact with an outer circumferential surface of the inner ring and an inner circumferential surface of the outer ring; a retaining portion that keeps the plurality of rolling elements apart from one another at predetermined intervals; a pressing portion that applies a preload between the inner ring and the rolling elements and between the outer ring and the rolling elements; and an input shaft that is formed to have a smaller diameter than the inner circumferential surface of the inner ring, is disposed adjacent to the inner ring, and transmits a rotational driving force to the inner circumferential surface of the inner ring. One of the outer ring and the retaining portion is connected to the output shaft, and the other thereof is fixed.
Abstract:
A first rotary shaft and a second rotary are disposed such that they are rotatable around a rotation axis. The second rotary shaft has a cylindrical supporting part that covers the end section of the first rotary shaft. A case supports the first rotary shaft and the second rotary shaft. A first rolling bearing is disposed between the first rotary shaft and the case and supports the first rotary shaft such that it is rotatable. A second rolling bearing is disposed between the supporting part and the first rotary shaft and supports the first rotary shaft and the second rotary shaft such that they are rotatable relative to each other. A transmission part of the second rotary shaft transmits to the second rolling bearing a preload force that pushes the second rotary shaft to the first rotary shaft side. A load-receiving part of the case that receives the preload force transmitted from the second rolling bearing to the first rolling bearing.

Abstract:
There is provided a compact and highly durable variable-speed traction drive transmission device. A traction drive transmission device which uses the traction of rolling bodies K arranged between an input shaft Si and an output shaft So to change the number of revolutions of the input shaft Si into a desired transmission ratio and output from the output shaft So, has a rotation axis of the rolling bodies K arranged at an incline so that it is not orthogonal to the axis of the input shaft Si and the output shaft So, and there is provided: a load regulation cam 50 which automatically changes a preload applied to the rolling bodies K corresponding to a torque of the input shaft Si; and a differential type transmission ratio variation mechanism using a worm gear 55, which is connected to a retainer 40 serving as a traction input-output member of the rolling bodies K, and performs number of revolutions control of the retainer 40 to change the transmission ratio.

Abstract:
A first rotary shaft and a second rotary are rotatable around a rotation axis. The second rotary shaft has a cylindrical supporting part that covers an end section of the first rotary shaft. A case supports the first and second rotary shafts. A first rolling bearing is disposed between the first rotary shaft and the case and rotatably supports the first rotary shaft. A second rolling bearing is disposed between the supporting part and the first rotary shaft and supports the first rotary shaft and the second rotary shaft such that they are rotatable relative to each other. A transmission part of the second rotary shaft transmits to the second rolling bearing a preload force that pushes the second rotary shaft to the first rotary shaft side. A load-receiving part of the case receives the preload force transmitted from the second rolling bearing to the first rolling bearing.
