Abstract: A park lock arrangement for use in a continuously variable transmission including a housing, an end cover and a casing having one end portion coupled with the housing and the opposite end portion coupled with the end cover. The casing has an inwardly recessed portion to define a reduced container space. A follower shaft supporting a follower pulley has one end portion rotatably supported on the end cover and the opposite end portion extending into the housing. A driver gear is mounted on the opposite end portion of the follower shaft. A parking gear is disposed on the follower shaft between the follower pulley and the driver gear. A control shaft extends through the reduced container space and has one end portion projecting outwardly from the inwardly recessed portion of the casing. The control shaft drivingly supports a park lock mechanism for locking the parking gear. The park lock mechanism is disposed within the reduced container space.
