2. 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 ...

3. Bowden cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowden_cable

   A Bowden cable (/ ˈ b oʊ d ən / BOH-dən) [1] is a type of flexible cable used to transmit mechanical force or energy by the movement of an inner cable relative to a hollow outer cable housing. The housing is generally of composite construction, consisting of an inner lining, a longitudinally incompressible layer such as a helical winding or ...

4. Marine grade stainless - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_grade_stainless

   Stainless steels, such as super austenitic stainless steels (for example UNS S31254 or N08367), or super duplex stainless steels (for example UNS S32760 or S32750) meet this requirement. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] Near the seashore 316L is typically considered the minimum grade for use in such a marine environment.

5. Giubo - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giubo

   A driveshaft coupling. Note the split damage beginning to appear, likely due to the large axial displacement. A giubo. A giubo (/ ˈ dʒ uː b oʊ / JOO-boh; etymology: giunto Boschi, "Boschi joint"), also known as a 'flexdisc', and sometimes misspelled as guibo, is a flexible coupling used to transmit rotational torque between the drive shaft and the companion flange on mechanical devices ...

6. Saildrive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saildrive

   The intermediate shaft is then geared so as to drive a horizontal propeller shaft mounted on a skeg outside the hull. The transitions from horizontal to vertical and then back to horizontal can be seen as a Z shape, and saildrives are indeed similar to the Z-drive transmissions used on larger vessels. The difference between a saildrive and a Z ...

7. Azimuth thruster - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azimuth_thruster

   A Z-drive thruster has a horizontal input shaft, a vertical shaft in the rotating column and a horizontal output shaft, with two right-angle gears. Electrical transmission , more commonly called pods, where an electric motor is fitted in the pod itself, connected directly to the propeller without gears.
