Abstract
A coupling mechanism comprises driving means 12 selectively engaged by driven means 13. The driving means 12 includes an active driving sprocket 15 engaged by a drive chain. The positional relationship of the sprocket 15 with respect to the drive chain is selectively adjustable through a clamp mechanism 21. Locking means 139, 141 preclude the driven means 13 from rotating when the driving means 13 is disengaged from the driving means 12. The positional relationship of the locking means 139 is adjustable relative to coupling drive pins 129.
