main spindle 28 therefore in case where while the trunnion 7 a and rod 18 a are supported in such a manner as shown in fig2 and 3 a cutting tool 29 is butted against the rod 18 a and the outer peripheral surface of the pivot shaft 6 a on the above mentioned one end portion side then while rotating the main spindle 28 the present outer peripheral surface is cut the axis of the present outer peripheral surface can be made to coincide with the axis of the outer peripheral surface of the pivot shaft 6 b on the above mentioned other end portion side in the case of a toroidal type continuously variable transmission according to the present embodiment incorporating therein the above mentioned mutually integrated trunnion 7 a and rod 18 a the manufacturing cost of the toroidal type continuously variable transmission can be reduced the size and weight thereof can be reduced and the transmission operation thereof can be stabilized that is according to the present invention since the trunnion 7 a and rod 18 a are formed as an integrated body from the beginning when compared with the conventional structure shown in fig7 and 8 there is eliminated the operation to connect together the trunnion 7 and rod 18 which are produced separately from each other specifically there are eliminated not only the operation to work the one end portion of the trunnion 7 to thereby form the connecting hole 21 therein but also the.
