Apparatus for adjusting the rotational speed of a drive mechanism

摘要

The invention concerns a device for adjusting the rotational speed of a drive mechanism preferably of the type used in a movie projector and provided with a drive motor having a stationary fixed stator, a rotor rotating in only one direction and connected to a friction wheel with at least one, preferably two, oppositely disposed friction discs fixed on a drive shaft for driving engagement with the friction wheel, the friction wheel being adjustable with respect to the friction discs in a radial direction to thereby adjust the rotational speed of the driving mechanism.
