ABSTRACT A friction drive apparatus for imparting generally linear motion to a member having first and second laterally spaced sur- faces, such as an annular structure, utilizing a fixed support, a rotatable friction wheel in driving contact with the first sur- face of the member, a movable support frame mounted on the fixed support for linear movement normal to the plane of tangency at the point of contact between the friction wheel and the first surface of the member, drive means rigidly secured to the movable support frame and connected to the friction wheel for rotating it, means for biasing the movable support frame toward the plane of tangency, thereby biasing the friction wheel against the first surface of the member, and a freely rotatable back-up wheel hav- ing its circumferential periphery in contact with the second sur- face of the member, with the back-up wheel being rigidly secured to the fixed support opposite from the friction wheel.
