ABSTRACT:
A nonsynchronized positive clutch system (200) is provided for selectively rotationally coupling and decoupling a first (46) and a second (42) independently rotatable members. The clutch system includes clutch members (50, 42A) each carrying a number (N) of interengagable clutch teeth (208, 210) which is maximized in view of pitch diameter (214), clutch backlash (216) and durability considerations. By increasing the number of clutch teeth, relative to the prior art (200P), smoother shifting and/or reduced risk of missed engagements is obtained.
