There are no summers or winters near the equator because the temperatures vary little throughout the year. There are "dry" and "rainy" seasons, which like the summer and winter are caused by differences in solar heating as the apparent track of the Sun is to the north or south of the equator.

Why is there no summer or winter at the equator?

Becuase the temperature stays the same throughout the year. #Edit; The Equator has two winters per year. One when the Sun is over the Tropic of Capricorn and the other when the Sun is over the Tropic of Cancer. It also has two Summers per year. One when the Sun appears to be moving North and the Equator is transiting the Ecliptic and the other when the Sun is apparently moving South and again the Equator is transiting the Ecliptic. Sort of, HOT ... HOTTER ... HOT ... HOTTER.
