The module is the measure of gear tooth size which is normally used for metric system gears. It is similar to the Diametral Pitch (DP), which is commonly used for UK system (inch measure) gears but they differ in the units used and in that they bear a reciprocal relationship. Module is the pitch circle diameter divided by the number of teeth.
Methylenebis(dibutyldithiocarbamate) is an additive in some extreme pressure gear oils, serving as an antioxidant and protecting metal surfaces. [ 1 ] The early extreme pressure additives were based on lead salts of fatty acids ("lead soaps "), "active sulfur" compounds (e.g. thiols and elementary sulfur), and chlorinated compounds.
A split housing is like a walnut shell, the housing is divided in two parts, with a lower part that ties down the Gear Box to the structure, supports all the components during the assembly stage and holds the lubrication oil; and the upper part that completes the enclosure and provides mechanical integrity to the housing. The upper and lower ...
Oil circulation system Gerotor type oil pump from a scooter engine. The oil pump is an internal combustion engine part that circulates engine oil under pressure to the rotating bearings, the sliding pistons and the camshaft of the engine. This lubricates the bearings, allows the use of higher-capacity fluid bearings, and also assists in cooling ...
A wet sump design can be problematic in a racing car, as the large g force pulled by drivers going around corners causes the oil in the pan to slosh, gravitating away from the oil pick-up, briefly starving the system of oil and damaging the engine. However, on a motorcycle this difficulty does not arise, as a bike leans into corners and the oil ...
An exploded view of an external gear pump Fluid flow in an external gear pump Fluid flows from left to right in this internal gear pump. Oil pump from a scooter engine. A gear pump uses the meshing of gears to pump fluid by displacement. [1] They are one of the most common types of pumps for hydraulic fluid power applications.
The automatic lubrication system is connected to a control system via switchs. The control system may involve human input or may be computerised (computer numerical control or CNC). [2] [3] There are advantages of using an automatic lubrication system over a manual system. For example, there are savings in the costs of human resources. The ...
Oil mist is an atomized amount of oil carried or suspended in a volume of pressurized dry air. The oil mist, actually a ratio of one volume of oil suspended or carried in 200,000 volumes of clean, dry air, moves in a piping system (header). The point of origin is usually a mixing valve (the oil mist generator), connected to this header. Branch ...
