Abstract
A power transmission comprising a drive shaft and a driven shaft connected to each other to be relatively rotatable within a predetermined range. The connection between the two shafts includes a cam member axially slidable on the driven shaft. The driven shaft carries a brake device interlocked with the cam member. When an accelerating force is transmitted from ground wheels to the driven shaft, the cam member slides axially of the driven shaft. This sliding movement causes the brake device to brake the driven shaft.
