Abstract
A scissor gear assemblyhas a main gearand auxiliary gearconcentric to the main gear and in axial direction near the main gear. Further the assembly has a planar annular springbeing interrupted at one place. At the interruption the spring has two endsA andB. The spring is present between both gears and is with one endA connected to the main gearand with the other endB to the auxiliary gear, so that both gears are connected to each other in rotation direction via the spring. Each endA,B of the spring is provided with an extensionforming extra mass. These extensions are each provided with a slot. Because of these extra masses the spring torque will vary depending on the rotational speed of the gear assembly.
