ABSTRACT:
A pinion gear assembly for translating the back and forth movement of the pistons in the cylinders of an internal combustion engine into the rotating movement of a shaft is described. Two pistons are each disposed in pairs and opposite each other with the ends of a gear rack and perform back and forth movements together with the gear rack. Two gear wheels are in engagement with the gear rack and are disposed on two further shafts and are coupled with these by means of a grip roller and expanding friction clutch each. In the one direction of movement of the gear rack the one gear wheel drives the associated shaft and in the other direction of movement the other gear wheel drives the associated shaft in a respective direction of rotation. The drive directions of rotation of the two further shafts are in the same direction. During rotation of the gear wheels in a respective drive direction of rotation opposite to the direction of rotation they continue to free-wheel in the drive direction of rotation. The further shafts drive the first mentioned shaft.
