Abstract
A toroidal-type continuously variable transmission is constructed such that an action line of a load on a ball or rolling element is inclined with respect to a power roller rotation axis so that a point of intersection of the action line and the power roller rotation axis is positioned farther than an outer ring support surface of a power roller support member with respect to an inner ring of the power roller.
