Animation of a cycloidal drive. A cycloidal drive or cycloidal speed reducer is a mechanism for reducing the speed of an input shaft by a certain ratio. Cycloidal speed reducers are capable of relatively high ratios in compact sizes with very low backlash. [1] The input shaft drives an eccentric bearing that in turn drives the cycloidal disc in ...
Cyclorotor before installation on small-scale cyclogyro. A cyclorotor, cycloidal rotor, cycloidal propeller or cyclogiro, is a fluid propulsion device that converts shaft power into the acceleration of a fluid using a rotating axis perpendicular to the direction of fluid motion.

A popular online survey site, Swagbucks, pays its members anywhere from $1 to $5 daily. Some offers do pay $50 to $250, but these tend to be more intensive and time-consuming.
From ancient history to the modern day, the clitoris has been discredited, dismissed and deleted -- and women's pleasure has often been left out of the conversation entirely. Now, an underground art movement led by artist Sophia Wallace is emerging across the globe to challenge the lies, question the myths and rewrite the rules around sex and the female body.
3. A large aspect of the design of watch and clock movements is the minimisation of friction. Involute gear teeth often mesh with 2 to 3 points of contact at once. Cycloidal gears can be made so there are only 1 to 2 points of contact. Since there is always some friction at these meshing points, cycloidal profiles are preferred in horology ...
