Leistungsübertragungseinrichtung mit T-förmiger Anordnung

摘要

A T-drive assembly comprising an internal combustion engine with a crankshaft adapted to be mounted in a vehicle in a direction transverse to the fore-and-aft geometric vehicle axis, a geared transmission having an axis perpendicular to the axis of the crankshaft, and a cross-axis drive between the crankshaft and torque input elements of the transmission including zero backlash bevel gears, one bevel gear being secured to a mid-position on the crankshaft and the other having a tapered hub in frictional driving relationship with a tapered torque input shaft for the transmission torque input elements.
