Description:
Abstract:

My invention relates to improvements in propelling mechanism for motor vehicles and the like, and consists especially in the use of friction transmission from the driving shaft to the actuating gearing, in which preferably a friction wheel having an internal annular friction face is adapted to be thrown into and out of engagement with the friction pulley, the latter preferably being mounted upon the driving shaft.

Claim:

In propelling mechanism for a motor vehicle and the like, a frame having an engine mounted thereon, an engine shaft driven thereby having a friction pulley thereon, a second frame mounted upon said first frame, a shaft journaled in said second frame, a friction wheel on said shaft having an internal annular friction face formed thereon, a pinion on said shaft, gearing for direct and reverse transmission adapted to mesh with said pinion, means for actuating said second frame to bring said friction wheel into engagement with said friction pulley and additional means for actuating said second frame to bring said pinion into engagement with. the direct or reverse transmission gearing at will.
