Method of manufacturing a belt for continuously variable transmission

摘要

The method involves rotating a belt to break in the belt until the belt is rotated smoothly, and pressing a portion of the belt between a drive roller and a driven roller while the belt is at rest or in rotation. A distance by which the belt is fixed is measured when the portion of the belt between the drive roller and driven roller is pressed, thus deciding whether the belt is acceptable or not. The belt is around the drive roller and driven roller, and is tensioned by displacing the drive and driven rollers away from each other.
