Abstract

819. Ross, J. E. Jan. 12. Variable-speed epicyclic gearing.-A two-train variable-speed hub gear for cycles, motor-cycles, &c. is provided with a single fixed sun-pinion, the internal wheels of both trains and the carrier g of the second train being each formed with peripheral clutch teeth p to engage in turn a sliding clutch member q whereby motion is communicated to the hub. As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the driving-member c carries the planetpinions n of the first train, and is connected to the internal wheel c<2> of the second train, the sliding member being arranged to carry oppositely-directed pawls s, t for engaging with the hub teeth c' and the teeth b<2> of the brakeoperating member, respectively. The pivot of the pawl t engages a slot b<3> in the clutch member, so that, when the brake is applied, the pivot moves under the tail of the pawl s and disengages it from the hub. Moreover, when the machine is wheeled backwards, the initial movement of the clutch member causes the pawl t to pass under the tail of the pawl s and so disengages it from the hub; the brake is therefore not applied. In a modification without brake mechanism, a ratchet clutch is provided between the driving-member and the carrier of the first train, driving connexion between the clutch member and the hub being effected by pins engaging longitudinal slots or by teeth or other means. A friction clutch, such as the plate or ring form of clutch, may be interposed between the member q and the hub, say, for a motor-cycle, the clutch being releasable for starting the engine from a pedal - driven sprocket-wheel. As applied to a motor-cycle, the gear is modified so that the direct drive is the highest speed, the driving - member being connected to the first internal wheel, and the carrier of the first train and the internal wheel of the second being connected together.
