(under the class definition) Subject matter wherein means are
provided to regulate the operation of said transmission, and such means is actuated by hydraulic or pneumatic energy. [figure] [caption] Transmission assembly comprising a coupling device, a friction speed variator including a hydraulic actuating device and an input shaft driven by the coupling device and an output shaft, two gears respectively integral with the input shaft and output shaft, motion-reversing gear means capable of engaging the two gears for reverse speed operation of the transmissions assembly, and control means comprising valve means controlling the hydraulic actuating device and a manually-controlled selector lever for shifting the motion-reversing gear means and shifting the valve. The selector lever is capable of occupying at least three positions and reverse speed position and passes through an intermediate position between neutral position and reverse speed position in which intermediate position the valve brings the hydraulic actuating device into action.
