Apparatus for detecting the speed of an endless torque-transmitting member of a continuously variable transmission

摘要

A device for detecting the speed of an endless torque-transmitting member that passes around a pair of spaced conical pulley pairs of a continuously variable transmission. The device includes a sensor that is positioned adjacent the endless torque-transmitting member and that detects the speed of the endless torque-transmitting member at a point that is located relative to the movement course of the endless torque-transmitting member that is independent of the rotational speed relationship of the pulley pairs.
