ABSTRACT:
Two transmission members of a planetary gear transmission in a hub of a driven vehicle wheel are driven simultaneously at different speeds in a forward or backward direction. Driven forward movement of the slower transmission member is transmitted to the hub shell by an overrunning clutch. A second clutch connects the other transmission member to the hub shell when operated by a centrifugal governor at a certain rotary speed. A control device responds to backward rotation of the transmission members, as by back-pedaling, for overriding the governor and for operating the second clutch independently of the rotary speed.
