Abstract
A power take-off of an internal combustion engine, typically an Otto-cycle or Diesel engine, for auxiliary machines, such as compressors, pumps, etc., with the input shaft of the auxiliary machine being drivingly connected with the output shaft of the internal combustion engine via gears. To change the step-up/step-down ratio, the shaft center spacing between the input shaft of the auxiliary machine and the output shaft of the internal combustion engine is variable in a manner that the drive pinion is supported in an eccentric bearing bushing which, in turn, is arranged axially displaceably and rotatably in a flanged housing. The eccentric bearing bushing has a flanged part having axial holes to alternatively accept a locating pin.
