More Information
Summary:A torque transfer device allows torque to be input at one point of the devic e and transferred to another point of the device, at which the power or torque is taken from the device. The device incorporates a continuous direct drive (9) comprised of a plurality of individual, and unconnected, pins (16) which advance each other to provide the drive. The pins (16) have enlarged ends (1 7) and reduced centers (18). The centers of the pins ride on a centrally dispos ed shedder (15) which acts as a guide rail. The direct drive (9) communicates with the drive sprockets (10, 11), traveling through the drive sprockets to rotate the drive sprockets to transfer torque.
