Abstract
A gear assembly for automobile transmissions includes a pair of driving and driven gears permanently in meshing engagement with each other to provide a torque transmission therebetween, and an additional gear relatively rotatable at one side of either one of the gears and being permanently in meshing engagement with the other gear to rotate at a gear ratio different from that of the driving and driven gears, and in which the additional gear is resiliently in contact with one end face of the gear adjacent thereto to restrain a relative rotation between the driving and driven gears. The toothed portion of the gear adjacent to the additional gear is formed at one end thereof with an annular stepped portion for provision of a predetermined annular gap between the additional gear and one end of the toothed portion of the gear.
