Benefits of technology

[0005]The present invention addresses the above described problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a case assembly including a cover configured to have a small thickness to reduce wasted space in front of the cover in a direction in which the cover is detached, and to thereby achieve easier maintenance work in a belt-type continuously variable transmission incorporated into a vehicle.

Problems solved by technology

This increases wasted space in the vehicle.

Example

[0018]Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Throughout the drawings, the same or corresponding components are identified by the same reference numerals and will not be described in repetition. The stated directions are referenced from the perspective of a driver riding in a utility vehicle.

[0019]FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an external appearance of the utility vehicle 1 (vehicle) according to an embodiment of the present invention. For example, the utility vehicle 1 is intended for four persons and has four wheels. The utility vehicle 1 includes a pair of right and left front wheels 2, a pair of right and left rear wheels 3, a vehicle body frame 4, a driver seat 5, a passenger seat 6, a left rear seat 7, and a right rear seat 8. The front wheels 2 are suspended from the front portion of the vehicle body frame 4, while the rear wheels 3 are suspended from the rear portion of the vehicle body frame 4. The four seats

Abstract

A belt-type continuously variable transmission is provided. The belt-type continuously variable transmission includes a drive pulley assembly; a driven pulley assembly, a belt wrapped around these pulley assemblies, and a case assembly accommodating them. The case assembly includes a case body joined to a housing of a drive device such as an engine and a cover joined to the case body. Since an air-intake duct and an air discharge duct are attached to the case body, the cover can be configured to be thin, and thus the cover can be detached without providing a wide space in front of the cover in the direction in which the cover is detached. With this construction, the cover can be detached without detaching the air-intake duct and the air discharge duct, and thus maintenance can be performed easily.
