Cooling structure for a continuous variation transmission system of an all-terrain vehicle
A cooling structure for a continuous variation transmission system of an all-terrain vehicle which includes a radiator mounted at a front end of the vehicle and under a front body cover, a hood enclosing the radiator, a gearbox having an inlet and an outlet, the inlet being connected with an inlet conduit for drawing outside cool air into the gearbox, the outlet being connected with an exhaust conduit for discharging hot air from the gearbox, wherein the inlet conduit has an inlet end mounted between the hood and the front body cover and shielded by the hood and the front body cover, whereby the cooling structure can effectively prevent water, dirt and dust from entering the gearbox and are simple in construction and easy to assemble and maintain.
1. A cooling structure for a continuous variation transmission system of an all-terrain vehicle comprising:
a continuous transmission system; and
a gearbox enclosing said continuous transmission system and having a front end provided with an inlet and a rear end provided with an outlet, said inlet being connected with an inlet conduit for drawing outside cool air into said gearbox, said outlet being connected with an exhaust conduit for discharging hot air from said gearbox;
wherein a cap is provided on a bottom side of a rear body cover and receives an outlet end of said exhaust conduit for preventing water, dirt and dust from entering said exhaust conduit, said cap is integrally formed with said rear body cover.
2. The cooling structure for a continuous variation transmission system of an all-terrain vehicle as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said cap has an opened end facing a rear portion of said vehicle.
3. The cooling structure for a continuous variation transmission system of an all-terrain vehicle as claimed in claim 1 , wherein an outlet end of said exhaust conduit is mounted facing a head portion of said vehicle.
4. The cooling structure for a continuous variation transmission system of an all-terrain vehicle as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a lateral side of said cap and an outlet end of said exhaust conduit overlap in projection.
5. The cooling structure for a continuous variation transmission system of an all-terrain vehicle as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said cap is mounted along a longitudinal center line of said vehicle.
