100
The parts require a linking component to hold them together.
What is indirect?
100
Ensures the straight translational motion of a moving part.
What is translational guiding?
100
Component that receives the force required to activate the system.
What is a driver?
100
The rotational axis is in the center.
What is a cam?
100
The effect on speed when engine torque = resisting torque.
When is there no speed change?
200
Two parts hold together without a linking component.
What is direct?
200
Ensures the translational motion of a moving part while it rotates about the same axis.
What is helical guiding?
200
The component that receives the motion and transfers it to another part.
What is a driven component?
200
The rotational axis is off-centre.
What is eccentric?
200
The effect on the speed when engine torque > resisting torque.
When does the speed increase?
300
The linking component or the surfaces of the linked parts are rigid.
What is rigid?
300
Ensures rotational motion of a moving part.
What is rotational guiding?
300
Located between the driver and the driven components.
What is an intermediate component?
300
Keeps the follower in continual contact with the cam.
What is a spring?
300
The engine torque < resisting torque.
When the speed is reduced?
400
A link that prevents the linked parts from moving independent of one another.
What is complete?
400
A liquid lubricant found in your car.
What is oil?
400
In a worm gear system these must fit the gear teeth.
What are grooves?
400
In screw gear systems the threads of these must match the screw.
What is the nut?
400
Another word for friction and it is essential in a friction gear system.
What is adhesion?
500
A link where at least one part can move independently of the other parts.
What is partial?
500
The type of guiding control found in a bicycle wheel.
What is rotational guiding?
500
A motion transmission system where the driver does not turn at the same speed as the driven component.
What is a speed change?
500
The teeth of the two parts in this system must be identical.
What is a rack and pinion system?
500
Should be used when a quiet gear system is needed.
What are helical teeth?
