Abstract

In a non-finite speed ratio transmission device using a toroidal continuously variable transmission (2), a hydraulic cylinder (30) for driving a power roller (20) via a trunnion (23), a shift control valve (46) for controlling a supply direction of oil to an oil chambers (30A, 30B) of the hydraulic cylinder (30), and a precess cam (35) which feeds back a displacement of the power roller (20) to the shift control valve (46) so as to shut-off the flow of oil to and from the oil chambers (30A, 30B), are provided. The shift control valve (46) comprises a drain port (46J) which can be connected to the oil chamber (30A) and a drain port (46I) which can be connected to the oil chamber (30B). By providing a positive torque control valve (40) which controls the oil pressure of the drain port (46I), and a negative torque control valve (45) which controls the oil pressure of the drain port (46J), the shift control valve (46) controls a differential pressure .DELTA.P of the oil chambers (30A, 30B) from 0 to a line pressure PL when the speed ratio ic of the toroidal continuously variable transmission (2) is maintained in the vicinity of a geared neutral position GNP.
