<p>A transmission is provided which comprises a fixed housing or support (5), input means (56) moveable relative to said support (5) and a torque shaft (57) rotatable about its longitudinal axis, and a driven shaft (69) arranged to be rotated about its longitudinal axis by the torque shaft (57), a first one-way clutch (2) between the torque shaft (57) and the driven shaft (69), linkage means (58, 70) rotatable about the axis of rotation of the driven shaft (69) under the influence of said input means (56) and an inertial body (60) mounted on the linkage means (58, 70) to be cyclically angularly deflected in response to the input means (56), the reaction forces generated by the inertial body (60) as it is cyclically deflected being applied to the torque shaft (57) as a positive and negative torque and the torque shaft (57) being connected over a second one-way clutch (1) opposite to the first one-way clutch (2) either to said support (5) or to the driven shaft (69) over a rotation reversal system whereby the driven shaft (69) can be rotated by the torque shaft (57) in one sense of rotation only. The inertial body (60) preferably comprises a rotor (13) so that gyroscopic forces are applied to the torque shaft (57).</p> |
