In the case of CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission), employing 3 K-type planetary gears, being manufactured, the speed of the output shaft of the CVT can be changed continuously from zero up to high speed. In this report, the construction of automatic transmission (RX-AT) has been designed incorporating this CVT, and the normal force has been set to make RX-AT transmit the power without slippage. After the equation of the rating life was determined by the experiments, the size of the RX-AT was determined by this equation and the normal force. Furthermore, from the result of manufacturing the experimental model RX-AT, a RX-AT more compact than conventional automatic transmission has been realized.
