ABSTRACT:
In a friction type transmission two substantially rigid members are in frictional engagement at respective contact portions to provide a longitudinally extending contact zone therebetween. In some such transmissions the relative velocities of the members at a first end of the contact zone are different than at a second end thereof. This creates slippage problems. To solve these problems a plurality of generally parallel plates are aligned in a pack and are arranged whereby an edge of the aligned plates forms the aforementioned contact portion of at least one of the inelastic members. Slippage is thereby prevented.
