Abstract
543,713. Controlling variable-speed gearing. LEYLAND MOTORS, Ltd., and PILKINGTON, V. W. Sept. 5, 1940, No. 13907. [Class 80 (ii)] In motor road vehicles in which the drive to the road wheels is transmitted through a fluid flywheel and a variablespeed gear wherein changes of speed are effected by friction clutches or brakes, a friction clutch is interposed between the fluid flywheel and the variablespeed gear and is actuated by the gear-changing lever so that the clutch is necessarily released while a change of gears is being effected. The clutch 3 is interposed between the driven member of the fluid flywheel 2, and the input shaft of a changespeed gear 4, here shown as of the constant-mesh type with friction clutches 7 adapted to be manipulated by a lever 8 having a yielding hand-grip 9. This hand grip is adapted to close contacts to energize, from a battery 14, an electromagnet 13 which opens a valve 12 to connect to a source of vacuum a cylinder 11 a piston in which is connected to the clutch. At the same time the throttle or fuel-control valve 16 may be actuated to reduce engine power. The clutch 3 may be electromagnetic. To actuate the clutch in case of failure of the pneumatic or electrical apparatus a pedal 17 is provided which, when not in use, may be folded into a concealed position.
