Claim:
A toroidal-type continuously variable transmission, comprising: first and second disks respectively having inner surfaces and rotatably supported to be concentric with each other in such a manner the mutual inner surfaces thereof are opposed to each other; a trunnion swingable about the associated pivot shafts situated at positions twisted with respect to the center axes of said first and second disks, said trunnion including: a support plate portion; and a pair of bent wall portions formed in two end portions of said support plate portion and bent on an inner surface side of said support plate portion, said pivot shafts being disposed concentrically with each other on outer surfaces of said bent wall portions; a displacement shaft supported on a central portion of said support plate portion of said trunnion in such a manner as to project out from the inner surface of said support plate portion; a power roller rotatably supported on a periphery of said displacement shaft; a bearing disposed on an outer surface of said power roller for allowing said power roller to rotate while supporting a thrust-direction load applied to said power roller; a trunnion shaft formed integrally with said pivot shaft; an oil pressure piston fitted with an outer peripheral surface of said trunnion shaft for moving said trunnions along the axial direction of said pivot shaft; and, a cut-away portion formed in the outer peripheral surface of said trunnion shaft for forming, between said cut-away portion and said oil pressure piston, an oil passage for a lubricating oil to be supplied to said bearing.
