ABSTRACT:
A speed change gear mechanism for lathes includes a driving shaft having a number of first gears securely mounted thereon to rotate therewith, a driven shaft including a number of second gears each rotatably mounted thereon via a bearing, and a chuck shaft including a number of third gears securely mounted thereon to rotate therewith. The number of the second gears is a sum of the number of the first gears and the number of the third gears. Each second gear is meshed with a corresponding one of the first gears and the third gears. A camshaft includes a cam formed thereon, the cam having a number of angular positions that correspond to different speeds of the chuck shaft. A clutch device has a first end selectively engaged with two of the second gears that respectively meshed wvith an associated first gear and an associated third gear to thereby determine a rotational speed of the chuck shaft.
