Flywheel drive for machines and vehicles, especially mine vehicles

摘要

This relates to a flywheel drive for machines and vehicles, with a flywheel arranged on a driveshaft, a drive motor acting on the drive shaft by way of a clutch and an output shaft connectable to the driveshaft by way of a clutch. At least two contrarotating flywheels are arranged on the driveshaft. A reversing gear mechanism is arranged between both flywheels. In this way, synchronisation is obtained in relation to the driveshaft, and the otherwise negative effects of the gyroscopic effect are at the same time remedied. <IMAGE>
