  2. Gear train - Wikipedia

    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 ...

  3. Torque - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque

    Depending on the gear ratio of the bicycle, a (torque, angular speed) input pair is converted to a (torque, angular speed) output pair. By using a larger rear gear, or by switching to a lower gear in multi-speed bicycles, angular speed of the road wheels is decreased while the torque is increased, product of which (i.e. power) does not change.

  4. Gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear

    Worm-and-gear sets are a simple and compact way to achieve a high torque, low speed gear ratio. For example, helical gears are normally limited to gear ratios of less than 10:1 while worm-and-gear sets vary from 10:1 to 500:1. [45] A disadvantage is the potential for considerable sliding action, leading to low efficiency. [46]

  5. Torque multiplier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_multiplier

    Torque multipliers only have a fraction of the final torque pressure on the drive tool making them a safer choice. Torque multipliers typically employ an epicyclic gear train having one or more stages. Each stage of gearing multiplies the torque applied. In epicyclic gear systems, torque is applied to the input gear or ‘sun’ gear. A number ...

  6. Mechanical advantage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_advantage

    The speed ratio for a pair of meshing gears can be computed from ratio of the radii of the pitch circles and the ratio of the number of teeth on each gear, its gear ratio. Two meshing gears transmit rotational motion. The velocity v of the point of contact on the pitch circles is the same on both gears, and is given by

  7. Transmission (mechanical device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_(mechanical...

    A transmission (also called a gearbox) is a mechanical device which uses a gear set —two or more gears working together—to change the speed, direction of rotation, or torque multiplication/reduction in a machine. [1][2] Transmissions can have a single fixed-gear ratio, multiple distinct gear ratios, or continuously variable ratios.

  8. Torque converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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. In a vehicle with an automatic transmission, the torque converter connects the prime mover to the automatic gear train, which then drives the load.

  9. Effective torque - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_torque

    The formula for effective torque to the wheels is: [2] Tw = Te * Ntf * ηtf Ntf = Nt * Nf ηtf = ηt * ηf ... where Tw is wheel torque, Te is engine torque, N is the gear ratio, η is the efficiency, and the subscripts t and f are for the gearbox and differential, respectively.
