<p>A longitudinal gearbox (11), in particular for motorcycles, comprises a housing (12) in which there is accommodated a drive or primary shaft (15), which can be rotated by an engine, and is associated with a secondary shaft (45). Inside the housing (12), there are also accommodated a first (19) and a second (20) return shaft, which support respectively idle first (17) and second (18) gears, each of which engages with drive gears (16), which are keyed onto the primary shaft (15). On the first (19) and on the second (20) return shaft, there is also keyed a return gear (29), which engages with a corresponding return gear (44), which is keyed onto the secondary shaft (45). In addition, the first (19) and the second (20) return shaft support clutches (21, 22, 48, 49), which can lock one of the first (17) or second (18) gears alternatively, in order to permit the transmission of motion from the primary shaft (15) to the secondary shaft (45), with a specific transmission ratio. <IMAGE></p> |
