  2. Power steering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_steering

    Power steering is a system for reducing a driver's effort to turn a steering wheel of a motor vehicle, by using a power source to assist steering. [1]Hydraulic or electric actuators add controlled energy to the steering mechanism, so the driver can provide less effort to turn the steered wheels when driving at typical speeds, and considerably reduce the physical effort necessary to turn the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Come-along

    Come-along. A come-along. A come-along, also known as a power puller is a hand-operated winch with a ratchet used to pull objects. The drum is wrapped with wire rope. A similar tool that uses a nylon strap is used to straighten trees, as it straightens gradually over time, therefore not splitting the trunk. Come-alongs are not rated for ...

  4. Pulley - Wikipedia

    1. Sheave without a rope. A pulley is a wheel on an axle or shaft enabling a taut cable or belt passing over the wheel to move and change direction, or transfer power between itself and a shaft. A sheave or pulley wheel is a pulley using an axle supported by a frame or shell (block) to guide a cable or exert force.

  5. Underdrive pulleys - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underdrive_pulleys

    Underdrive pulleys. Underdrive is the slowing of the rate of rotation in a system, achieved by either making the crank or main (drive) pulley smaller or making the accessory (driven) pulley larger than the original diameter pulleys. Underdrive pulleys increase engine output by reducing the draw of the engine's accessories by slowing them down ...

  6. Differential pulley - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_pulley

    The differential pulley was invented in 1854 by Thomas Aldridge Weston from King's Norton, England. [2] The pulleys were manufactured in collaboration with Richard and George Tangye. According to Richard Tangye's autobiography, the Weston differential pulley evolved from the Chinese windlass, with an endless chain replacing the finite length of ...

  7. Idler-wheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idler-wheel

    An idler gear is a gear wheel that is inserted between two or more other gear wheels. The purpose of an idler gear can be two-fold. Firstly, the idler gear will change the direction of rotation of the output shaft. Secondly, an idler gear can assist to reduce the size of the input/output gears whilst maintaining the spacing of the shafts.

  8. Ackermann steering geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ackermann_steering_geometry

    The Ackermann steering geometry is a geometric arrangement of linkages in the steering of a car or other vehicle designed to solve the problem of wheels on the inside and outside of a turn needing to trace out circles of different radii. It was invented by the German carriage builder Georg Lankensperger in Munich in 1816, then patented by his ...
