I. Introduction Gears are the most common means of transmitting power in mechanical engineering. There are tiny gears for devices like wrist watches and there are large gears that some of you might have noticed in the movie like Titanic. Gears from vital elements of mechanisms in many machines such as vehicles, metal tooling machine tools, rolling mills, hoisting and transmitting machinery, marine engines, and the like. Toothed gears are used to change the speed, power, and direction between an input and output shaft. Gears have existed since the invention of rotating machinery. Because of their force-multiplying properties, early engineers used them for hoisting heavy loads such as building materials. Gears are composed of different parts that play an important role or purposes In order to operate from its work. This are: addendum which is the height of tooth above pitch circle or the distance between the pitch circle and the top of the tooth. The

    By joining together two or more gears of different sizes, both the speed and the torque are changed from the input gear to the output gear. The larger gear within a system will always move slower and have more torque than the smaller gear. Gear Ratio (GR) is a comparison between the driver gear, also called the input (connected to the power source), and the gear being driven, or the output. Below are four ways to determine the gear ratio in figure 1.…

    A wrench is a tool that is used by hand and is used for making and repairing things. A wrench can loosen or tighten bolts, nuts, or nails using it adjustable teeth at the front of the tool. The first wrench was patented by Solymon Merrick in 1835. There is a variety of different wrenches that include; Monkey Wrench, Ratchet Wrench, Pipe Wrench, and the Rachetless Wrench, all of these different tools perform different functions. The wrench may seem like a simple hardware tool yet it is complicated, tedious, and a very precise piece of…

    The mechanical advantage of the machine built was 29.2. Each simple machine incorporated in the design added to the mechanical advantage. The fixed pulley system had an advantage of one because the pulley changed the rubber band’s direction once. The three sets of wheel and axles used each provided a 8.4 mechanical advantage. The two gear sets produced a mechanical advantage of two: one from each gear…

    Wheel and axle is two disks or cylinders, each one with a different radius. They are used in a chain reaction where the wheel has something done to it to make the axle turn. They are used in cars and door knobs. An inclined plane is a plane that’s inclined at an angle. They are used to make work easier over a longer distance. They work by making someone go further to have less strain from being horizontal or vertical. Some examples of this is a hill, slides, and ladder. A lever is a bar that helps move heavy loads. They can transfer effort and work. They work by pushing on one side with weight on the other. Copies of this is teeter totters and wheel barrows. A wedge looks like a slice of cake or pizza but is usually wood or metal and is 3D. They are used to cut wood and can do many other things like hold doors open. They work by separating or holding items together. A screw is a cylinder with an inclined plane wrapped around it. It does work by pressing things together or putting things together. For example, they can press fruit making juice and books. A pulley is a wheel with a rope that lifts heavy weights. This can make work easier when oneself wants something from off the ground higher. They do work by getting pulled on one side to bring the object up. They can be used in construction to move like metal and…

    1 Gears turn in a circular direction. There is an inverse relationship between torque and speed in gearing. A ten-speed bicycle has ten different gear selections. When you pedal up a hill, you use a gear train that provides more torque (turning force) but, in doing so, less speed.…

    Among those inventions that are credited with passing into general practical use are the strut bridge, the automated bobbin winder, the rolling mill, the machine for testing the tensile strength of wire and the lens-grinding machine pictured at right. In the lens-grinding machine, the hand rotation of the grinding wheel operates an angle-gear, which rotates a shaft, turning a geared dish in which sits the glass or crystal to be crushed. A single action rotates both surfaces at a speed ratio determined by the…
