Abstract
A toroidal continuously variable transmission include a pair of disks which is provided rotatably and concentrically with each other in a state where inner surfaces of respective disks are opposed to each other and a power roller held between the disks opposing to each other. One of the disks is supported on a shaft. The other of the disks is rotatably supported, via a first bearing, on a hollow shaft into which the shaft is inserted and which is non-rotatably supported by a support member. The shaft is rotatably supported on the hollow shaft via a second bearing.
