ABSTRACT:
A governor supporting assembly is adapted to serve also as coupling means between a first shaft, which may be the output shaft of the automatic transmission of a motor vehicle, and a second shaft while also mounting the governor for rotation jointly with said first shaft. A governor housing has secured thereto a cylindrical extension member arranged for engagement around portions of the coupled shafts. External axially extending splines formed on the engaging portions of the shafts are adapted to mesh with internal axially extending splines formed on the cylindrical extension member. A retaining or clip ring is fitted in annular grooves defined in both the externally splined surfaces of either of the shafts and in the internally splined surface of the cylindrical extension member in order to prevent relative axial movement of the engaged shaft with respect to the cylindrical extension member of the governor housing. The other shaft is arranged to be slidably movable relative to the extension member in the axial direction.
