ABSTRACT:
A spring washer engaged transmission wherein a plurality of planetary discs are conformed to provide two opposed conical surfaces, the axis of rotation of each disc including the apex of the cone. The planetary discs are received between a first set of two dished washers forming a sun and a second set of similarly shaped washers forming an exterior peripheral ring. Each disc is mounted for rotation on a corresponding pin, the pins being received in cam grooves formed in the driving plate in a first embodiment and being mounted for eccentric rotation in the second embodiment. A centrifugal bob weight attached to each pin in the second embodiment controls the eccentric alignment of the pin thus controlling the displacement of the disc relative the first and second set of dished washers.
