Abstract
A supercharging device for an internal combustion engine includes a runner for compressing air, a driven pulley for rotating the runner, and a drive pulley for rotating the driven pulley. The drive pulley has a fixed sheave and a movable sheave movable in an axial direction with respect to the fixed sheave. A belt is wound around the driven pulley and the drive pulley. A control device is for moving the movable sheave in an axial direction so that the movable sheave is moved away from the fixed sheave under a low load condition and that said movable sheave is moved towards the fixed sheave under a high load condition.
