ABSTRACT:
In an infinitely variable traction roller transmission wherein two toric traction disks are rotatably supported opposite each other so as to define a toric cavity in which at least two traction rollers are disposed in engagement with the two toric disks, the toric disks have, in a plane receiving the axis of rotation of the toric traction disks, a curvature wherein their tangents at the points of contact with the traction rollers intersect on the axis of rotation of the toric disks along with the axis of rotation of the traction roller and the traction rollers are supported by support means including a guide wheel which moves along a guide track during pivoting of the support means so as to maintain engagement between the traction rollers and the toric disks in all pivot positions of the traction rollers.
