Abstract
An intermittent driving apparatus having input and output shafts disposed in perpendicular but nonintersecting relationship, and joined together by an intermittent drive coupling for transmitting rotation of the input shaft intermittently to the output shaft. The input shaft extends through an eccentric opening formed on a ring which is disposed within an opening formed in the housing. The ring can be angularly adjusted relative to the housing to vary the position of the axis of the input shaft. The ring is fixed to the housing by a securing pin, and a ring-shaped cover is press-fit into the angular gap between the ring and the housing.
Claims3
In an intermittent driving apparatus having an input shaft and an output shaft rectangularly intersecting with each other, and an eccentric ring held by a housing for rotatably supporting said input shaft and adjusting the position of the axis thereof, said eccentric ring and said housing defining an annular gap therebetween, wherein the improvement comprises:
- said eccentric ring is secured to said housing by means of a pin and a ring-shaped cover is press-fit into said annular gap between said eccentric ring and the housing.
In an intermittent driving apparatus having a housing, input and output shafts rotatably supported on said housing so that the axes of said shafts extend perpendicularly with respect to one another in nonintersecting relationship, a drive transmitting arrangement coupled between said input and output shafts for transmitting rotation of said input shaft in an intermittent manner to said output shaft, said housing having an opening therein in which is supported an eccentric ring which supportingly surrounds said input shaft for adjusting the position of the axis thereof, the improvement comprises:
- the eccentric ring is stationarily secured to the housing by a pin, and a ring-shaped cover is press-fit between said ring and said housing.
