.~.~ Driving and driven gears on perpendicular axes
DEFINITION
Classification: 476/24
Driving and driven gears on perpendicular axes:
(under subclass 18) Subject matter wherein said rolling frictional contact is between a first part having a first rotational axis and a second part having a second rotational axis; said second axis being at an angle of ninety degrees relative to said first axis. [figure] [caption]In operation the handpiece 14-17 is turned to operate the chain and sprockets, which in turn slide the hanger, its friction-wheel, and shaft 24 to either contact the friction-wheel with the friction disk or disengage them, as occasion may demand. In either position of the friction-wheel the contact or bearing of the said wheel on the disk may be adjusted by operating the hand-lever 27 to swing the hanger on the rod 13. To reverse the shaft 24, the handpiece 17 is operated to slide the hanger and the friction-wheel past the center of the friction-disk.
