An apparatus includes a housing, an input portion including an input gear, an idler portion including an idler gear, and an output portion including an output gear and an output member disposed outside of the housing and substantially coplanar with a drive portion of a rear wheel assembly. The housing can couple to an engine assembly such that rotation of an engine output member rotates the input gear. The input gear can move within the housing between a first position, in which the input gear engages the idler gear and is spaced apart from the output gear to indirectly rotate the output gear in a first direction via the idler gear, and a second position, in which the input gear engages the output gear and is spaced apart from the idler gear to directly rotate the output gear in a second direction. The output member rotates with the output gear.

A textile traverse rod guide device particularly suited for the guiding of winding of yarns onto packages is described wherein the traverse guide substantially reduces the noise level of winding machine when in operation. The traverse guide is capable of reducing the noise level on the order of 5 to 8 decibels compared to previously used devices while at the same time providing better package build. The noted traverse guide is fabricated as a single piece from engineering plastics and operates utilizing torque-tension principles rather than mechanical guidance and swivel means.
