Abstract
A friction roller-type reduction gear includes a sun roller concentric with an input shaft, a ring roller having a stationary ring roller element and a moveable ring roller element, intermediate rollers in rolling contact with an outer peripheral surface of the sun roller and an inner peripheral surface of the ring roller, a coupling part coupling the ring roller and the output shaft, and a loading cam mechanism having a cam ring for changing contact surface pressure of each rolling contact surface. The outer surface of the sun roller is a concave curved surface of which a shape of an outer edge in an axial cross-section is a single circular arc-shaped concave curve, and an outer surface of the intermediate roller is a convex curved surface of which a shape of an outer edge in an axial cross-section is a single circular arc-shaped convex curve.
