ABSTRACT:
A two-speed reducing mechanism for controlling the adjustment of a closure such as a blind having adjustable slats which includes a drive input shaft or wheel which is meshed with a planetary ger system supported by an output drive ring which itself is oriented within a rotatable bushing which may be selectively secured from rotation by a braking device. The planetary gear assembly is also meshed with the bushing so that when the bushing is rotatable, the closure member may be quickly adjusted in a one-to-one drive relationship with respect to the input shaft, however, when the bushing is prevented from rotating, the elements of the planetary gear assembly will rotate upon themselves causing a speed reduction.
