Patent ID: 6908405

Claim:
A pulley width adjusting device for a continuously variable transmission, comprising: a rotation shaft provided rotatably on a support member via a bearing; a fixed pulley disk integrated with the rotation shaft; a movable pulley disk provided non-rotatably but movably in an axial direction on the rotation shaft to be opposite to the fixed pulley disk; and a ball screw mechanism including a screw cylinder provided on an outer circumference of the rotation shaft and a nut member provided on an outer circumference of the screw cylinder, wherein as the nut member rotates with respect to the screw cylinder, the nut member moves in an axial direction of the screw cylinder to drive the movable pulley disk in the axial direction, thereby varying a pulley width between the fixed pulley disk and the movable pulley disk, wherein the pulley width adjusting device further comprises: a stopper pin inserted through the screw cylinder from an end surface of a circumferential wall thereof to an other end surface, having an end portion projecting from an end surface of the screw cylinder and an other end portion projecting from the other end surface of the screw cylinder; and a stopper projection rotating together with the nut member, the one end portion of the stopper pin forming rotation inhibiting means for inhibiting rotation of the screw cylinder when it engages with the support member, and the other end of the stopper pin forming excessive fastening preventing means for regulating a rotation range of the nut member when it abuts against the stopper projection as the nut member rotates by a predetermined amount.
