Abstract
A mechanical system for speed adjustment, comprising mechanical driving means and a driven shaft member, with linking means between the driving source and the drive shaft member for driving the latter, the system further comprises a crank element comprising an eccentric disc disposed on the driven shaft member and a connecting rod driven by the eccentric disc, the connecting rod comprising an arm portion that rides the eccentric disc. Also included are means for adjusting the eccentricity of the eccentric disc with respect to the driven shaft, which adjusting means comprises a spacing element movable into and from a position between the crank element and the driven shaft, the system also contains an output shaft element driven by the connecting rod.
