ABSTRACT:
The angular or rotative position of a sprocket wheel may be incrementally adjusted through the appropriate manipulation of a pair of spaced-apart, opposed wedge assemblies mounted on the wheel that capture a crank of the shaft so that by inching the crank in one rotative direction or the other through manipulation of the wedge assemblies, the rotative relationship between the wheel and the shaft is changed. Each wedge assembly includes a pair of relatively shiftable components having interengaging cam surfaces, one of such components having an arcuate surface that is received in slidable, mating engagement by a complementally formed recess on the proximal side of the crank, thereby permitting relative rotational movement between the crank and the wedge assemblies so as to accommodate the swinging or arcuate nature of the crank movement during adjustment.
