A vehicle drive plant comprises at least two prime movers mounted with their shafts aligned at an interposed base block enclosing a gear train communicating the prime mover shafts with a common output shaft. The gear train may include bevel gears at the individual prime mover inputs, being coordinated by at least one intermediate bevel pinion. A spur gear communicating with a mating gear at the output shaft is then mounted at one of the bevel gears. With a four prime mover plant there may be spur gears at the prime mover inputs, the output shaft having an aligned stub shaft extension. The output shaft, as well as the stub shaft, carries a gear wheel having a cylindrical gear rim for cooperation with prime movers located to the same side of the plane of the division as the output shaft, or stub shaft, respectively. Each of last mentioned gear wheels is further united with a bevel gear and the two bevel gears are coordinated by means of at least one interposed bevel pinion. The base block may be divided in a plane perpendicular to the prime mover shafts, and transmission members of the gear train are located so as to become accessible from the plane of division, when the base block is opened. |
