Abstract
A disk set arrangement for a chain-CVT having a function-optimized disk set surface contour. The CVT includes a first drive disk set and a second driven disk set, wherein the disk sets of the disk set arrangement in each case include two disks mounted on respective shafts. One disk of each of the disk sets can be displaced axially relative to an opposed axially fixed disk. An endless chain arrangement with rocker pressure pieces is operative between the disk sets to transmit torque. The rocker pressure pieces have longitudinal axes that extend parallel to the rotational axes of the shafts, and include outer axial ends that contact the contoured disk surfaces.
