Abstract: A gear drive apparatus is provided which includes a rotatable drive shaft, a driving member, a driven member and a pinion gear. The rotatable drive shaft contains a handle and a stem. The driving member is integrally connected to the stem and rotates with the stem in response to the rotation of the handle. The driven member is coaxially positioned about the stem and engages the driving member. At least one radial aperture and radial groove are coaxially formed on the driven member and rotated about the stem. A pinion gear is rotatably mounted on the stem and includes at least one radial boss and pinion teeth, which extend from the pinion gear. The radial boss is positioned within the radial groove and a portion of one of the pinion teeth is fitted within the radial aper.
