Abstract
A power-machine comprising a plurality of driving gears positioned around a driven gear, each driving gear including a plurality of radially sliding teeth spaced equidistant about the outer circumference of the driving gear, such that centrifugal force created by the rotational movement of the driving gears will move the radially sliding teeth radially outward of the driving gears to contact and thereby accelerate the drive gear.
Claims4
A power machine comprising:
- a driven gear;
- a plurality of driving gears positioned about and cooperating with said driven gear;
- each of said driving gears including a plurality of radially sliding teeth positioned equidistant about the circumference of said driving gears for transmitting centrifugal force to said driven gear;
- said driven gear includes a plurality of fixed gears positioned equidistant about the outer circumference thereof and which cooperate with said radially sliding teeth whereby rotation of said driving gears imparts centrifugal force to said radially sliding teeth which transmit said force to said drive gear upon cooperation with said fixed gears to thereby accelerate said driven gear.
