  2. Transfer case - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_case

    Inside of a 231 New Process Gear transfer case. Part-time/Manual, shift on the fly. A transfer case is an intermediate gearbox that transfers power from the transmission of a motor vehicle to the driven axles of four-wheel-drive, all-wheel-drive, and other multi-axled on- and off-road machines.

  3. Torque converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_converter

    ZF torque converter cut-away A cut-away model of a torque converter. A torque converter is a device, usually implemented as a type of fluid coupling, that transfers rotating power from a prime mover, like an internal combustion engine, to a rotating driven load.

  4. Traction control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traction_control_system

    The predecessor of modern electronic traction control systems can be found in high-torque, high-power rear-wheel-drive cars as a limited slip differential.A limited-slip differential is a purely mechanical system that transfers a relatively small amount of power to the non-slipping wheel, while still allowing some wheel spin to occur.

  5. Torsional vibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsional_vibration

    Torsional vibration is a concern in the crankshafts of internal combustion engines because it could break the crankshaft itself; shear-off the flywheel; or cause driven belts, gears and attached components to fail, especially when the frequency of the vibration matches the torsional resonant frequency of the crankshaft.

  6. Rotary encoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_encoder

    A rotary encoder, also called a shaft encoder, is an electro-mechanical device that converts the angular position or motion of a shaft or axle to analog or digital output signals. [1] There are two main types of rotary encoder: absolute and incremental. The output of an absolute encoder indicates the current shaft position, making it an angle ...

  7. Incremental encoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incremental_encoder

    Rotary incremental encoder with shaft attached to its thru-bore opening Introduction to incremental encoders, from VideoWiki script Incremental Encoder. An incremental encoder is a linear or rotary electromechanical device that has two output signals, A and B, which issue pulses when the device is moved. [1]

    In that case, this is also an option to discuss with a qualified financial advisor who can review the current portfolio and recommend changes. What Is My Contingency Plan for Unexpected Costs?

  9. Drive shaft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drive_shaft

    In this case the drive shaft rotates continuously with the engine, even when the car is stationary and out of gear. However, the Porsche 924/944/928 models have the clutch mounted to the back of the engine in a bell housing and the drive shaft from the clutch output, located inside of a hollow protective torque tube, transfers power to the rear ...
