ABSTRACT:
An indexing and synchronizing clutch mechanism is disclosed which allows a driven shaft to be stopped in a precise indexing position and to be restarted from the indexing position in exact synchronization with a drive shaft. The mechanism comprises a rotatable drive wheel having an engagement means and a rotatable driven shaft. A pawl means is mounted on the driven shaft for rotation with the shaft. The pawl means is also movable into and out of engagement with the engagement means on the drive wheel whereby the driven shaft is rotated in synchronization with the drive wheel. Actuatable means are provided for moving the pawl means into and out of engagement with the drive wheel. A fixed stop is mounted adjacent to the drive wheel and is adapted to prevent rotation of the pawl means and to hold the position of the pawl means when it is moved out of engagement with the drive wheel by the actuatable means whereby the drive shaft is held in an indexing position.
