SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 367,532, dated August 2, 1887.

' Application filed April 13, 1887. Serial No. 234,604. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JOHN LJUNG, of Nelson, in the county of Douglas and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Gearing, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

The object of my invention is to provide a new and improved gearing for transmitting power very effectively and economically.

The invention consists in the construction and arrangement of various parts and details and combinations of the same, as will be fully described hereinafter, and then pointed out in the claims.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.

Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improve ment. Fig. 2 is a sectional plan view of the same on the line 00 x of Fig. i. Fig. 3is a sectional plan view of the drivingshaft' and its crank-arm, and Fig. i is a sectional end elevation of the swinging frame and intermediate gear-wheel.

On a suitable standard, A, is secured one end of the spindle or pin 13, which forms on its other end a bearing for one end of the shaft O, rigidly-connected with the crank-arm D, having a bearing in the standard A. On the shaft O is secured the gear-wheel'E, meshing into the intermediate gear-wheel, F, secured to the shaft G, having its bearing in the counterbalanced frame H, turning loosely on the shaft 0. I

The intermediate gear-wheel meshcsinto the internal gear, 1, formed on the transmittingwheel J, connected either by belt passing over the rim'J or by the gear J? with the machinery to be driven. On the shaft G is also secured a gear-wheel, K, meshing into the gearwheel L, secured to the fixed spindle B.

The operation is as follows: Power is ap plied to the crank-arm D, whereby the shaft 0 and its gear-wheel E are rotated. The latter imparts a rotary motion to the intermediate gear-wheel, F, thus turning the shaft G, whereby the gear-wheel K is caused to rollon the fixed gear-wheel Ia, so that the counterbalanced frame H, carrying the said gearwheels F and K, turns on its fulcrum, and the gear-wheel F thereby transmits its power to the wheel J as it meshes into the internal gear, I, formed on the said wheel J. Thus it will be seen that the power imparted to the (llilllkilllll D is very effectively and economically transmitted to the driving-wheel J.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

1. In a gearing, the combination, with a fixed spindle and a gear-wheelsecu red thereon, of a shaft carrying a crankarm and being in line with the said fixed spindle, a gear-wheel secured on the said shaft, an intermediate gear-wheel meshing into the said gear-wheel, a third gear-wheel rigidly secured to the said intermediate gear wheel, and a counterbalanced frame turning loosely on said shaft and said spindle, and carrying said intermediate and third gear-wheels, substantially as shown and described.

2. In a gearing, the combination, with a fixed spindle and a gear-wheel secured thereon, of a shaft carrying a crank-arm and being in line with the said fixed spindle, a gear-wheel secured on the said shaft, an intermediate gear-wheel meshing into the said gear-wheel, a third gear-wheel rigidly secured to the said intermediate gear-wheel, a counterbalanced frame turning loosely on said shaft and said spindle, and carrying said intermediate and third gear wheels, and the main driving-wheel having an internal gear meshing into the said intermediate gear wheel, substantially as shown and described.
