Abstract
A type of a stepless speed change gear has a plurality of conical rollers each of which has a conical surface frictionally and internally engaging a ring-member moved axially by a speed changing device, a first annular surface frictionally engaging a disc of small diameter on an input shaft and a second annular surface frictionally engaging with a disc or large diameter arranged coaxially with the input shaft, and a contact pressure generating device of cam-type for generating contact pressures at three frictionally engaging points on each of the conical rollers. An assembly in which thrusting due to the friction-drive does not act onto the casing is provided. In the assembly, the disc of small diameter, the disc of large diameter and the contact pressure generating device are supported by a single shaft prohibiting running-out of them in axial direction. In addition, the conical rollers are bundled by the ring-member so that they will not drop out of the assembly.
