PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce a degree of deformation of an input member by reinforcing the strength of the input member.SOLUTION: A bolt hole 34a having a female threaded section at the closed end is formed in an input cone 34, and a bolt receiving section 34b is formed in the vicinity of the open end of the bolt hole 34a. A bolt 35 is fitted and inserted into the bolt hole 34a, and a male threaded section at the tip of the bolt 35 is threadably coupled to the female threaded section of the bolt hole 34a, so as to make a compressive force act on the small diameter side of the input cone 34. Thus, since the compressive force is made to act on the small diameter side where the strength is lowest in the input cone 34, it is possible to reinforce the strength in the region of the input cone 34 where the strength is most insufficient and where reinforcement is needed most. Consequently, compared with a case where compressive force is not applied to the small diameter side of the input cone 34 by the bolt 35, the degree of deformation of the input cone 34 generated by nipping pressure caused by a nipping pressure adjustment mechanism 50 can be reduced.
