Abstract:
A continuously variable transmission metal belt includes a metal ring assembly and metal elements. The metal ring assembly includes stacked endless metal rings. Each of the stacked endless metal rings includes a flat peripheral surface and a substantially semicircular end face. The substantially semicircular end face is connected to an end of the peripheral surface in a width direction of each of the stacked endless metal rings. The metal elements are supported on the metal ring assembly. A displacement Z of the end face is smaller than or equal to 0.1R. The displacement Z is defined as Z=R−H. R is a radius of an imaginary circle that passes through a contact point between the peripheral surface and the end face and that is tangent to the end face. H is a distance from a center of the imaginary circle to the peripheral surface.
