Abstract

A continuously variable transmission is disclosed for use in rotationally or linearly powered machines and vehicles. The transmission provides a simple manual shifting method for the user.
Further, the practical commercialization of traction roller transmissions requires improvements in the reliability, ease of shifting, function and simplicity of the transmission. The present invention includes a continuously variable transmission that may be employed in connection with any type of machine that is in need of a transmission. For example, the transmission may be used in (i) a motorized vehicle such as an automobile, motorcycle, or watercraft, (ii) a non--motorized vehicle such as a bicycle, tricycle, scooter, exercise equipment or (iii) industrial equipment, such as a drill press, power generating equipment, or textile mill.

Claims (12)

1. A support member for components of a continuously variable transmission, the support member comprising:
a disk having a central hole and an outer circumference;
a plurality of grooves that extend radially from the outer circumference toward the central hole; and a plurality of concave surfaces that extend radially from the outer circumference toward the central hole, wherein the concave surfaces are angularly interposed between the grooves.
2. The support member of Claim 1, wherein the central hole is shaped to prevent a relative rotation between the support member and a shaft placed in the central hole.
3. The support member of Claim 1, further comprising means for receiving a plurality of spacers.
4. The support member of Claim 3, wherein the means for receiving comprises a plurality of holes.
5. A support frame for components of a continuously variable transmission, the support frame comprising:
first and second disks, each disk comprising:
a disk having a central hole and an outer circumference;
a plurality of grooves that extend radially from the outer circumference toward the central hole; and a plurality of concave surfaces that extend radially from the outer circumference toward the central hole, wherein the concave surfaces are angularly interposed between the grooves; and means for rigidly attaching the first disk to the second disk.
6. The support frame of Claim 5, wherein at least one of the first and second disks comprises means for receiving the means for rigidly attaching the first disk to the second disk.
7. The support frame of Claim 5, wherein the means for rigidly attaching the first disk to the second disk comprise a plurality of spacers located between the first and second disk.
8. The support frame of Claim 5, wherein the concave surfaces of the first disk are placed facing the concave surfaces of the second disk.
9. A support for components of a continuously variable transmission, the support comprising:
an outer edge;
a central hole located radially inward of the outer edge;
a plurality of grooves placed angularly about the central hole, wherein the grooves extend radially between the central hole and the outer edge; and a plurality of concave surfaces placed angularly about the central hole, wherein the concave surfaces extend radially between the central hole and the outer edge.
10. The support of Claim 9, wherein the concave surfaces are angularly interposed between at least some of the grooves.
11. The support of Claim 9, wherein the grooves extend from substantially the outer edge to a radial point between the outer edge and the central hole.
12. The support of Claim 9, wherein the concave surfaces extend from substantially the outer edge to a radial point between the outer edge and the central hole.
