Abstract
The invention relates to a mechanical gearing. This comprises a frame, a first shaft mounted rotatably on the frame and carrying a pair of friction wheels which are disposed at a distance from each other and which have mutually facing friction surfaces together converging outward, a second shaft which is mounted on the frame parallel to but eccentrically relative to the first shaft and which carries a friction wheel which has an internal annular friction surface situated axially between the friction wheels of the first shaft, and a closed belt of mutually abutting push links. The belt forms on mutually opposite sides surfaces co-acting with the pair of friction wheels and on a radially outermost surface forms a surface co-acting with the single belt engaging wheel.
