STRUCTURE FOR COUPLING V-BELT TYPE CONTINOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION WITH ENGINE

摘要

In a structure for coupling a V-belt type continuously variable transmission with an engine of a vehicle, the engine includes a first opening through which a crankshaft passes. A coupling plate mounted on a plate mounting surface that surrounds the first opening includes a second opening through which the crankshaft and an upper end flange of the oil pan pass. First and second seal plates are disposed on front and back surfaces of the coupling plate, and the first and second seal plates seal a space into which the upper end flange is inserted. A liquid seal agent seals gaps of various locations of the second opening.

1. A structure for coupling a V-belt type continuously variable transmission with an engine, the structure comprising:
a plate mounting surface formed on one end surface of an engine case in a crankshaft direction, the plate mounting surface including a first opening through which a crankshaft passes, a lower end of the first opening being closed by an upper end flange of an oil pan mounted on a lower end of the engine case; a coupling plate mounted on the plate mounting surface, the coupling plate including a second opening through which the crankshaft and the upper end flange of the oil pan pass and a transmission case mounting surface, a first seal plate that is mounted on a lower surface of the upper end flange and that covers a lower portion of the second opening from an engine case side, the first seal plate having an L-shaped cross section; and a second seal plate that is mounted on a transmission case side of the coupling plate and that includes a recess covering ends of connected portions between the upper end flange and the first seal plate.
