To control the axial placement of the traction balls (2), there is a rotatable input disc (8) positioned adjacent to the traction balls (2), a rotatable output disc (9) positioned adjacent to the traction balls (2) opposite the input disc (8), and a pre-spanning ring around the traction balls (2) such that each of the traction balls (2) is making three-point contact with the input disc (8), the output disc (9) and the pre-spanning ring (11), the contact surface of the pre-spanning ring (11) having a specific curvature larger than the radius of the traction balls (2).
