Abstract
A transmission mechanism for vehicles comprising main clutch means having a primary clutch and a secondary clutch, primary and secondary propeller shafts for primary and secondary transmissions adapted to be intermittently rotated by the operation of said main clutch means, a first transmission system adapted to transmit the transmission power of said primary propeller shaft, a second transmission system adapted to transmit the transmission power of said secondary propeller shaft, and a reduction gearing for interlocking said secondary propeller shaft with said second transmission system. Further disposed is a transmission unit having a uni-directional clutch adapted to permit engine power to be transmitted only in the direction from said secondary propeller shaft to said primary propeller shaft.
