  2. Timer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timer

    Mechanical timers use clockwork to measure time. [1] Manual timers are typically set by turning a dial to the time interval desired, turning the dial stores energy in a mainspring to run the mechanism. They function similarly to a mechanical alarm clock, the energy in the mainspring causes a balance wheel to rotate back and forth. Each swing of ...

  3. Cam timer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cam_timer

    Using feedback, external time delay, and other sensory circuits, it is possible to build an electromechanical state machine using a cam timer. These are common in washing machines, where the cam timer runs in phases, but also stops and waits for external signals such as a fill level sensor, or a water heating temperature sensor.

  4. Torque wrench - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_wrench

    A click torque wrench. A torque wrench is a tool used to apply a specific torque to a fastener such as a nut, bolt, or lag screw.It is usually in the form of a socket wrench with an indicating scale, or an internal mechanism which will indicate (as by 'clicking', a specific movement of the tool handle in relation to the tool head) when a specified (adjustable) torque value has been reached ...

  5. Torque screwdriver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_screwdriver

    Manual torque screwdriver with torx bit. A torque screwdriver is a screwdriver with components that ensure tightening to a specified torque, ensuring tightening which is sufficient, but not excessive. An insufficiently tightened screw connection may loosen in operation, and excessive tightening can damage parts; for example, if the nuts holding ...

  6. Time switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_switch

    The timer may switch equipment on, off, or both, at a preset time or times, after a preset interval, or cyclically. A countdown time switch switches power, usually off, after a preset time. A cyclical timer switches equipment both on and off at preset times over a period, then repeats the cycle; the period is usually 24 hours or 7 days.

  7. Torque multiplier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_multiplier

    A torque multiplier is a tool used to provide a mechanical advantage in applying torque to turn bolts, nuts or other items designed to be actuated by application of torque, particularly where there are relatively high torque requirements.

    That is: linear distance = radius × angular distance. And by definition, linear distance = linear speed × time = radius × angular speed × time. By the definition of torque: torque = radius × force. We can rearrange this to determine force = torque ÷ radius. These two values can be substituted into the definition of power:
