Abstract: Transmission mechanism located between a driving shaft and a driven shaft and comprising a hydrokinetic coupling device and a device for reversing the rotation direction of the driven shaft.The hydrokinetic device comprises a driving wheel and a driven wheel, whereby the latter can be coupled to the driven shaft by means of a reversing device constituted by a planet gear, comprising planet wheels and bevel gears, located substantially in the center of the hydrokinetic device via hydraulically controlled coupling means and located on either side of the hydrokinetic device, whereby the driving and driven wheels, reversing device and coupling means are all located in a fluid-filled enclosure.An interesting application of the invention is to the automobile industry.

Abstract: A control device for a rearview mirror comprises a mirror fixed on a support element mounted for pivoting about a first axis on a crossbar which is mounted on a yoke rigid with a casing for pivoting about a second axis perpendicular to the first axis. Two independent cams are mounted on the casing to act respectively on a boss imparting to the mirror a pivoting movement about the first axis, and on a boss imparting to the mirror a pivoting movement about the second axis.
