2. Geneva drive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geneva_drive

   The Geneva drive or Geneva mechanism is a gear mechanism that translates a continuous rotation movement into intermittent rotary motion. The rotating drive wheel is usually equipped with a pin that reaches into a slot located in the other wheel (driven wheel) that advances it by one step at a time. The drive wheel also has an elevated circular ...

3. 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 ...

4. Belt-driven bicycle - Wikipedia

   Gates bike belt drive system Belt-drive Belt-drive single-speed rear hub on a Trek District Belt-drive crankset on a Trek District Belt-drive multi-speed rear hub gear on a Trek Soho. A belt-driven bicycle is a chainless bicycle that uses a flexible belt, typically a synchronous toothed design, in order to transmit power from the pedals to the ...

5. 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 ...

6. 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.

7. Belt-drive turntable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belt-drive_turntable

   The functional relationship between the drive belt, sub-platter, and motor pulley, can be seen through the glass platter on a Rega Planar 3.. There are three main types of phonograph turntable drives being manufactured today: the belt-drive, idler-wheel and direct-drive systems; the names are based upon the type of coupling used between the platter of the turntable and the motor.

8. Automatic transmission - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_transmission

   Cutaway view of a 2007 Toyota AA80E hydraulic automatic Typical gear selector for an automatic transmission. An automatic transmission (sometimes abbreviated AT) is a multi-speed transmission used in motor vehicles that does not require any input from the driver to change forward gears under normal driving conditions.

9. Belt friction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belt_friction

   Belt friction is a term describing the friction forces between a belt and a surface, such as a belt wrapped around a bollard.When a force applies a tension to one end of a belt or rope wrapped around a curved surface, the frictional force between the two surfaces increases with the amount of wrap about the curved surface, and only part of that force (or resultant belt tension) is transmitted ...
