  2. Worm drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worm_drive

    A worm drive is a gear arrangement in which a worm (which is a gear in the form of a screw) meshes with a worm wheel (which is similar in appearance to a spur gear). Its main purpose is to translate the motion of two perpendicular axes or to translate circular motion to linear motion (example: band type hose clamp ).The two elements are also ...

  3. Cycloidal drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 an eccentric, cycloidal motion ...

  4. Reduction drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduction_drive

    For medium and high speed diesels, the rotational speed of the crankshaft within the engine must be reduced in order to reach the optimum speed for use by a propeller. Reduction drives operate by making the engine turn a high speed pinion against a gear, turning the high rotational speed from the engine to lower rotational speed for the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_Wave_Gearing

    The basic concept of strain wave gearing (SWG) was introduced by C.W. Musser in a 1957 patent [5] [6] while he was an advisor at United Shoe Machinery Corp (USM). It was first used successfully in 1960 by USM Co. and later by Hasegawa Gear Works under license of USM.

  6. Propeller speed reduction unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propeller_Speed_Reduction_Unit

    A propeller speed reduction unit is a gearbox or a belt and pulley device used to reduce the output revolutions per minute (rpm) from the higher input rpm of the powerplant. [1] This allows the use of small displacement internal combustion engines to turn aircraft propellers within an efficient speed range.

  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. Variable ...
