Improvements in or relating to epicyclic gear mechanism

摘要

An epicyclic gear mechanism having a series of gear trains each including a rotatable cage, a plurality of planet gears, a stationary gear pinion and an output gear, all of the gear trains being mounted about a fixed shaft. The output gear of one gear train is operably associated with the input gear of a succeeding gear train and is rotatable relative to its cage, and a final output mechanism is associated with the last gear train of the series.
