Abstract:
A transmission arrangement includes an input shaft, an output shaft, an outer race mounted on one end of one of the input and output shafts, an inner race mounted on one end of the other of the input and output shafts, ball bearings, and first and second finger assists. The inner and outer races are arranged to create a cage. The ball bearings are disposed within the cage and spaced apart from each other. The first finger assist is mounted to press at least a first one of the ball bearings into position within the cage. The second finger assist is mounted to press at least a second one of the ball bearings into position within the cage. The second finger assist is disposed in registration with the first finger assist.
