  3. Non-circular gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-circular_gear

    Non-circular gear example Another non-circular gear. A non-circular gear (NCG) is a special gear design with special characteristics and purpose. While a regular gear is optimized to transmit torque to another engaged member with minimum noise and wear and with maximum efficiency, a non-circular gear's main objective might be ratio variations, axle displacement oscillations and more.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bevel_gear

    Bevel gears are most often mounted on shafts that are 90 degrees apart, but can be designed to work at other angles as well. [1] The pitch surface of bevel gears is a cone, known as a pitch cone. Bevel gears change the axis of rotation of rotational power delivery and are widely used in mechanical settings. Bevel gear on roller shutter door.

  5. Wheel train - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_train

    The core of the keyless mechanism is a gear on the watch's winding stem, the clutch (or castle wheel in Britain), with two sets of axial gear teeth on it, which slides in and out. When the stem is pushed in, a lever slides the clutch out, and the outer set of teeth engages a small wheel train which turns the mainspring arbor, winding the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinion

    the typically smaller gear in a gear drive train (although in the first commercially successful steam locomotive—the Salamanca—the pinion was rather large). [1] In many cases, such as remote controlled toys , the pinion is also the drive gear for a reduction in speed, since electric motors operate at higher speed and lower torque than ...

  7. Spiral bevel gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiral_bevel_gear

    The shape of a hypoid gear is a revolved hyperboloid (that is, the pitch surface of the hypoid gear is a hyperbolic surface), whereas the shape of a spiral bevel gear is normally conical. The hypoid gear places the pinion off-axis to the crown wheel (ring gear) which allows the pinion to be larger in diameter and have more contact area. In ...

  9. Gear train - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_train

    A gear train or gear set is a machine element of a mechanical system formed by mounting two or more gears on a frame such that the teeth of the gears engage.. Gear teeth are designed to ensure the pitch circles of engaging gears roll on each other without slipping, providing a smooth transmission of rotation from one gear to the next. [2]
