Yes Sturmey-Archer hub
I am new to these types of bikes and I don't know all of the names of the parts so the tutorial above is somewhat lost on me. Not sure what rod or fulcrum it is referring to.
If this is an SW, the 'SW' has come to mean 'Sometimes Works'. The lubricant in them is critical! But the metallurgy really wasn't there at the time and so the hubs slipped so Sturmey discontinued them and went back to the AW.
