A governor device for a vehicle having a speed detecting device adapted for detecting the speed of the input shaft of a transmission which is adapted to conduct a shift between power transmitting stage and neutral stage. The input shaft of the transmission is connected to the engine through an automatic stepless speed changer. The speed detecting means may be, for example, a centrifugal governor device meshing with the input shaft of the transmission.

Arrangement for governing vehicle engine speed responsive to actual

Sheave assembly for V-belt type transmission including fixed and movable sheave elements which cooperate with each other. A rotatable disc is mounted on the sheave shaft and engaged with the movable sheave element through a cam device. The disc is adapted to be applied with braking force when the engine throttle valve is closed or when the vehicle equipped with the transmission is applied with a brake so that a cam force is produced to urge the movable sheave element toward the fixed sheave element.
