  2. 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.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_train

    Gear train. Transmission of motion and force by gear wheels, compound train. [1] Illustration by Georgius Agricola (1580) showing a toothed wheel that engages a slotted cylinder to form a gear train that transmits power from a human-powered treadmill to mining pump. A gear train or gear set is a machine element of a mechanical system formed by ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_transmission

    Internals of a Getrag 282 manual transmission for a front-wheel-drive vehicle (Oldsmobile Cutlass) A manual transmission (MT), also known as manual gearbox, standard transmission (in Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States), or stick shift (in the United States), is a multi-speed motor vehicle transmission system where gear changes ...

  5. Epicyclic gearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epicyclic_gearing

    Epicyclic gearing or planetary gearing is a gear system consisting of one or more outer, or planet, gears or pinions, revolving about a central sun gear or sun wheel. [4][5] Typically, the planet gears are mounted on a movable arm or carrier, which itself may rotate relative to the sun gear.

  6. Gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear

    Gear. Two intermeshing spur gears rotating at different velocity due to differing gear ratio. A gear[1][2] or gearwheel[3][4][5] is a rotating machine part typically used to transmit rotational motion and/or torque by means of a series of teeth that engage with compatible teeth of another gear or other part.

  7. Chain drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain_drive

    Though drive chains are often simple oval loops, they can also go around corners by placing more than two gears along the chain; gears that do not put power into the system or transmit it out are generally known as idler-wheels. By varying the diameter of the input and output gears with respect to each other, the gear ratio can be altered. For ...

  8. Rack and pinion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rack_and_pinion

    Rack and pinion. A rack and pinion is a type of linear actuator that comprises a circular gear (the pinion) engaging a linear gear (the rack). [1] Together, they convert between rotational motion and linear motion: rotating the pinion causes the rack to be driven in a line. Conversely, moving the rack linearly will cause the pinion to rotate.

  9. Tusi couple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tusi_couple

    A (red) idler gear on the arm meshes with the fixed gear. A third (green) gear meshes with the idler. The third gear has half the number of teeth of the fixed gear. An (orange) arm is fixed to the third gear. If the length of the arm equals the distance between the fixed and outer gears = d, the arm will describe a straight line of throw = 2d.
