Gears, Pulleys, & Sprockets
These three power train elements transfer energy through rotary motion.
Change the speed of rotationChange the direction of rotationChange the amount of torque available to do work

Gears
A gear train is made when two or more gears are meshed
A gear train is a mechanism used for transmitting rotary motion and torque through interlocking teeth.
Driver gear causes motion
Motion is transferred to the driven gear

GearsMating gears always turn in opposite directions.
An Idler Gear allows the driver and driven gears to rotate in the same direction.
Mating gears always have the same size teeth (diametric pitch).

Gears
The rpm of the larger gear is always slower than the rpm of the smaller gear.
Gears locked together on the same shaft will always turn in the same direction and at the same rpm.

Gear Ratios – Compound Machines
• Used similarly to MA• Applies to torque instead of force
• In a compound machine, total MA and GR are products of components
• MA used only to calculate forces, not torques.• GR used only to calculate torques, not forces.

Compound Gear Train
The two middle gears share a common axle, so they rotate at the same speed.
This allows the final gear to rotate slower and produce more torque than if it were connected only to the driver gear.
