1Gear — For the gear like device used to drive a roller chain, see Sprocket. This article is about mechanical gears. For other uses, see Gear (disambiguation). Two meshing gears transmitting rotational motion. Note that the smaller gear is rotating… …
2Gear cutting — is any number of methods used to manufacture precision gears.Gear hobbing is a method by which a special hobbing anto cutter and gear blank are rotated at the same time to transfer the profile of the hob onto the gear blank.Spur and other… …
3gear — gearless, adj. /gear/, n. 1. Mach. a. a part, as a disk, wheel, or section of a shaft, having cut teeth of such form, size, and spacing that they mesh with teeth in another part to transmit or receive force and motion. b. an assembly of such… …
4gear wheel — noun a toothed wheel that engages another toothed mechanism in order to change the speed or direction of transmitted motion • Syn: ↑gear, ↑geared wheel, ↑cogwheel • Hypernyms: ↑wheel • Hyponyms: ↑bevel gear, ↑ …
5List of gear nomenclature — Gears have a wide range of unique terminology known as gear nomenclature. Many of the terms defined cite the same reference work.[1] Contents 1 Addendum 2 Addendum angle 3 Addendum circle …
6Bevel gear — Bevel gears are gears where the axes of the two shafts intersect and the tooth bearing faces of the gears themselves are conically shaped.Bevel gears are most often mounted on shafts that are 90 degrees apart, but can be designed to work at other …
7Cycloid gear — The cycloidal gear profile is a form of toothed gear used in mechanical clocks. The gear tooth profile is based on the epicycloid and hypocycloid curves, which are the curves generated by a circle rolling around the outside and inside of another… …
8Involute gear — Line of Action) runs along a tangent common to both base circles. (In this situation, there is no force, and no contact needed, along the opposite common tangent not shown.) The involutes here are traced out in converse fashion: points (of… …
9Spiral bevel gear — A spiral bevel gear is a bevel gear with helical teeth. The main application of this is in a motor vehicle differential, where the direction of the drive carried by the propeller shaft (drive shaft) has to be turned through 90 degrees in order to …
10Rack and pinion — A rack and pinion is a pair of gears which convert rotational motion into linear motion. The circular pinion engages teeth on a flat bar the rack . Rotational motion applied to the pinion will cause the rack to move to the side, up to the limit… …
