ABSTRACT:
A vehicle transmission which functions as a drive system for the vehicle accessories necessary for continuous operation of the vehicle's engine. The transmission includes a main shaft which is continuously rotated by an input shaft. Mounted on the main drive shaft is a main drive gear, which meshes with an accessory drive gear and a cluster gear assembly. The accessory drive gear in turn is coupled to an accessory shaft which functions to power a plurality of pumps mounted to the transmission. The cluster gear assembly in combination with a sliding gear assembly functions to start the vehicle moving in forward or reverse. The transmission being self contained within a casing such that the transmission can be mounted at any selected distance from the engine of the vehicle. Further, the input shaft may float back and forth within a hollow main shaft as it is not supported by bearings, which allows for misalignment between the engine crank shaft and the transmission.
