ABSTRACT:
In a remote-controlled mechanical double clutch mechanism such as marine reversing clutch, a novel clutch engaging and disengaging means is employed which comprises an extensible and contractible coupling for a connection between push-pull means of remote control system and control lever associated to the clutch. The coupling includes spring means which is enlarged in spring force thereof due to extension and contraction of the coupling on the way of operating the clutch and provides some additional rotation to the control lever at the terminal moment of operation by the enlarged spring force. Such spring means avoids an unexpected disengagement of the clutch from an engaged condition as well as an unexpected engagement of the clutch from the disengaged condition. The novel clutch operating means may compensate manufacturing error of the remote control system and clearance due to abrasion and permits an easy adjustment and maintenance of such operating means.
