[Published under Section 91 of the Act.] Sawing-machine driving and transmission devices. - Relates to a device for transmitting a continuous rotation from a long shaft, supported by bearings at several parts along its length, to a travelling gear - wheel moving parallel to said shaft. The device is applicable, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, to machines for sawing long trunks, the trunk being fixed and the saw frame travelling lengthwise thereof. A long driving-shaft 1, driven by a belt pulley 7 and having intermediate supporting-bearings 19, is provided with a slidingly feathered pinion 3 between each pair of bearings. The saw frame is carried upon a travelling support 9 and is reciprocated by means of a crank 8 upon a flywheel shaft 5, which carries a gear - wheel 4 driven from the shaft 1 by means of the pinions 3. Upon the support 9 is pivoted a lever 11, Fig. 2, carrying a yoke 16 adapted to engage a groove 17 to carry the feathered pinion 3 along with the gear-wheel 4. The lever 11 also carries a depending head 18, which rides up a fixed cam slope to withdraw the yoke 16 and release the operative pinion 3 when it reaches the end of its travel, terminated by an intermediate bearing 19. The drive is then taken up without interruption by the next pinion 3, which is retained on the other side of the bearing 19 by a spring-controlled detent 22. When the yoke 16 engages this pinion, the detent 22 may be disengaged by a cam element or may be formed with an inclined nose 23 providing for automatic disengagement.
