  2. Mecanum wheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mecanum_wheel

    A wheelchair using Mecanum wheels Container loader with numerous powered Mecanum wheels for shifting and rotation of containers.. The Mecanum wheel is a form of tireless wheel, with a series of rubberized external rollers obliquely attached to the whole circumference of its rim.

  3. Beier variable-ratio gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beier_variable-ratio_gear

    The gear is made in a variety of ratio ranges, typically from 3:1 to 10:1. Overall efficiency is good, greater than 90%. Unlike most other variators, but in common with the Hele-Shaw clutch , the Beier gear does not rely on friction between the disks, but rather on viscous drag through a thin oil film between them.

  4. Bevel gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bevel_gear

    The pitch surface of an ordinary gear is the shape of a cylinder. The pitch angle of a gear is the angle between the face of the pitch surface and the axis. The most familiar kinds of bevel gears have pitch angles of less than 90 degrees and therefore are cone-shaped. This type of bevel gear is called external because the gear teeth point ...

  5. Gear train - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_train

    A gear train or gear set is a machine element of a mechanical system formed by mounting two or more gears on a frame such that the teeth of the gears engage.. Gear teeth are designed to ensure the pitch circles of engaging gears roll on each other without slipping, providing a smooth transmission of rotation from one gear to the next. [2]

  6. Transmission (mechanical device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_(mechanical...

    A transmission (also called a gearbox) is a mechanical device which uses a gear set—two or more gears working together—to change the speed, direction of rotation, or torque multiplication/reduction in a machine. [1] [2] Transmissions can have a single fixed-gear ratio, multiple distinct gear ratios, or continuously variable ratios. Variable ...

  7. Synchro - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchro

    Power to the rotor is connected by slip rings and brushes, represented by the circles at the ends of the rotor winding. As shown, the rotor induces equal voltages in the 120° and 240° windings, and no voltage in the 0° winding. [Vex] does not necessarily need to be connected to the common lead of the stator star windings. Simple two-synchro ...

    Take the Brooklyn Nets, for example, who are terrible but rank sixth in 3-point attempts per game (40.1), ninth in makes (14.4) and are off to a surprising 4-4 start. They were considerable ...

  9. Spiral bevel gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiral_bevel_gear

    Spiral bevel gear. A spiral bevel gear is a bevel gear with helical teeth. The main application of this is in a vehicle differential, where the direction of drive from the drive shaft must be turned 90 degrees to drive the wheels. The helical design produces less vibration and noise than conventional straight-cut or spur-cut gear with straight ...
