Links and Guides
When two objects do not require a linking component.
What is direct?
A combination of two or more gears used to transmit motion between two rotating shafts
What is Gear Train?
A change in the shape of an object
What is Deformation?
The gear which transmits power and motion to the rest of the system. The input gear.
What is the Driver?
The component that gives power to a portable circuit.
What is a battery?
A rivet on a pair of scissors guides this type of motion.
What is rotational?
An egg-shaped gear rotates and causes a pin to move translationally
What is cam and follower?
A force on an object
What is a constraint?
A connected flexible series of links used as an intermediate.
What is chain?
What is a switch?
When a linking component will break if disassembled.
What is non-removable?
A mechanical arrangement consisting of a toothed wheel driven by a short revolving cylinder bearing a screw thread.
What is Worm and Wheel Gear?
A twisting Force
What is torsion?
The component in a motion system that connects the driver and driven.
What is the intermediate?
The component in a circuit that slows the flow of electrons.
What is a resisitor?
The part that holds an indirect link together.
What is linking component?
A pivot pin near the outside edge of a wheel or disk that changes rotational motion into translational motion
What is Slider and Crank?
A deformation that causes the object to change its shape
What is plastic?
The ratio of the speed of the driving member of a gear train to that of the driven member.
What is Gear Ratio?
The type of component represented by a light bulb or motor in a circuit.
What is transformation of energy?
This type of link does not allow motion between the two components.
What is complete?
A rotating gear that meshes with a bar that has gear teeth along its length. Changes rotating motion into tranlational motion.
What is Rack and Pinion?
The property that allows the transmission of electrons through a material.
What is conduction?
When two gears are locked together on the same axis.
What is compound gear?
The type of component in a circuit that ensures that damage doesn't occur as a result of a power surge.
What is protection (fuse or breaker)?
