  2. Spur gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spur_gear

    In corrected gears the cutter rack is shifted upwards or downwards. [clarification needed] Spur gears can be classified into two main categories: External and Internal. Gears with teeth on the outside of the cylinder are known as "external gears". Gears with teeth on the internal side of the cylinder are known as "internal gears".

  3. List of gear nomenclature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gear_nomenclature

    Profile of a spur gear Notation and numbering for an external gear Notation and numbering for an internal gear. The tooth surface (flank) forms the side of a gear tooth. [1] It is convenient to choose one face of the gear as the reference face and to mark it with the letter “I”. The other non-reference face might be termed face “II”.

  4. Gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear

    Spur gear. In a cylindrical spur gear or straight-cut gear, the tooth faces are straight along the direction parallel to the axis of rotation. Any imaginary cylinder with the same axis will cut the teeth along parallel straight lines. The teeth can be either internal or external. Two spur gears mesh together correctly only if fitted to parallel ...

  5. Accessory drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accessory_drive

    Klimov TV3-117 turboshaft engine. The accessory drive is the large casting on the top. The accessory drive is a gearbox that forms part of a gas turbine engine. [1] Although not part of the engine's core, it drives the accessories – such as generators, pumps for fuel and lubrication oil, air compressors, hydraulic pumps and engine starters – that are otherwise essential for the operation ...

  6. Gear pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_pump

    The rigid design of the gears and houses allow for very high pressures and the ability to pump highly viscous fluids. Many variations exist, including helical and herringbone gear sets (instead of spur gears), lobe shaped rotors similar to Roots blowers (commonly used as superchargers), and

  7. Gear train - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_train

    Two meshed spur gears, with a 2:1 ratio. The simplest example of a gear train has two gears. The input gear (also known as the drive gear or driver) transmits power to the output gear (also known as the driven gear). The input gear will typically be connected to a power source, such as a motor or engine.

  8. Geneva drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geneva_drive

    The Geneva drive or Geneva mechanism is a gear mechanism that translates a continuous rotation movement into intermittent rotary motion. The rotating drive wheel is usually equipped with a pin that reaches into a slot located in the other wheel (driven wheel) that advances it by one step at a time. The drive wheel also has an elevated circular ...

  9. Limited-slip differential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limited-slip_differential

    Geared, torque-sensitive mechanical limited-slip differentials use worm gears and spur gears to distribute and differentiate input power between two drive wheels or front and back axles. This is a completely separate design from the most common beveled spider gear designs seen in most automotive applications.
