ABSTRACT:
An improved epicyclic power transmission is disclosed. An input shaft is journalled on a torque plate. Gears are mounted on eccentrics on the input shaft. Chain connects the gears to the torque plate to prevent rotation of the gears but permit gyration of the gears. The chain also connects the gears to an output shaft whereby the gyratory motion of the gears is translated to rotation of the output shaft on an increased torque and reduced speed.
