Abstract
To perform the change-over smoothly between a uniform velocity mode and an acceleration mode and to relieve a shock at the time of changing-over the velocity, there are provided, in an auxiliary machine driving apparatus, a plurality of planet gears (2) rotatably supported on a carrier (21) connected to an input shaft (6), an internal gear (3) which meshes with the outer circumferences of the respective planet gears (2) and rotatably supported on a stationary portion, an electromagnetic powder brake (50) for connecting/disconnecting the internal gear (3) to/from the stationary portion, an output shaft (4) having a sun gear (41) which meshes with the inner circumferences of the respective planet gears (2) so as to be rotatably supported thereby, and a one-way clutch (8) provided between the carrier (21) and the output shaft (41).
