ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A V belt pulley clutch assembly for a variable speed transmission which may be either the driving or the driven pulley, and which has one movable sheave which is both speed torque responsive, and wherein the torque responsive por- tions comprise raised spiral ramps on the hub of the movable portion of the V belt pulley driven through saddle type members riding on the spiral ribs. The ribs are spiraled axially along the hub of the movable portion of the V belt pulley in a direction so that when the driven member is subjected to more load the unit tends to shift into a lower drive ratio. That is when the drive clutch assembly is powered from a drive shaft, the spirals are arranged so that the pulley halves tend to separate under increasing load on the belt. The ribs are on the external sur- face of hub and can be die cast draft free for permitting driving and sliding between two relatively movable pulley halves.
