  2. Belt (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belt_(mechanical)

    The open belt drive has parallel shafts rotating in the same direction, whereas the cross-belt drive also bears parallel shafts but rotate in opposite direction. The former is far more common, and the latter not appropriate for timing and standard V-belts unless there is a twist between each pulley so that the pulleys only contact the same belt ...

  3. Drive shaft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drive_shaft

    A drive shaft, driveshaft, driving shaft, tailshaft (Australian English), propeller shaft (prop shaft), or Cardan shaft (after Girolamo Cardano) is a component for transmitting mechanical power, torque, and rotation, usually used to connect other components of a drivetrain that cannot be connected directly because of distance or the need to ...

  4. Line shaft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_shaft

    A line shaft is a power-driven rotating shaft for power transmission that was used extensively from the Industrial Revolution until the early 20th century. Prior to the widespread use of electric motors small enough to be connected directly to each piece of machinery, line shafting was used to distribute power from a large central power source ...

  5. Rope drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rope_drive

    Rope drive in a hydroelectric plant Multiple rope drives driving lineshafts on each factory floor. The rope drives were placed in a large diagonal shaft at the side of the building, usually windowless and distinctively visible from outside the building. [ii] Rope drives required a larger such shaft than comparable belt or shaft drives.

  6. Pulley - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulley

    Flat belt on a belt pulley Belt and pulley system Cone pulley driven from above by a line shaft. A belt and pulley system is characterized by two or more pulleys in common to a belt. This allows for mechanical power, torque, and speed to be transmitted across axles. If the pulleys are of differing diameters, a mechanical advantage is realized.

  7. Power take-off - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_take-off

    A split shaft PTO is mounted to the truck's drive shaft to provide power to the PTO. Such a unit is an additional gearbox that separates the vehicle's drive shaft into two parts: The gearbox-facing shaft which will transmit the power of the engine to the split shaft PTO; The axle-facing shaft which transmit the propelling power to the axle.

  8. Chain drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain_drive

    Drive shafts are another common method used to move mechanical power around that is sometimes evaluated in comparison to chain drive; in particular belt drive vs chain drive vs shaft drive is a key design decision for most motorcycles. Drive shafts tend to be tougher and more reliable than chain drive, but the bevel gears have far more friction ...

  9. Mechanical advantage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_advantage

    For a toothed belt drive, the number of teeth on the sprocket can be used. For friction belt drives the pitch radius of the input and output pulleys must be used. The mechanical advantage of a pair of a chain drive or toothed belt drive with an input sprocket with N A teeth and the output sprocket has N B teeth is given by
