epicyclic gear
planetary gear

In epicyclic gearing one or more of the gear axes moves.

A former application was the locking of gear rings in epicyclic gearing.

A different automotive application of differentials is in epicyclic gearing.

The three basic components of the epicyclic gear are:

This would supply the same information as a complex epicyclic gearing system but using much simpler gear trains.

Torque multipliers typically employ an epicyclic gear train having one or more stages.

This is the lowest gear ratio attainable with an epicyclic gear train.

Hub gears use epicyclic gearing and are enclosed within the axle of the rear wheel.

That was achieved by interposing an epicyclic gear train between the axle and the crown wheel.

The cam-ring was concentric with the crankshaft and driven via epicyclic gears.

Final drive : Spiral bevel with epicyclic gear dual ratio axle.

Before epicyclic gears were used in bicycle hubs, they were used on tricycles.

The gearbox used epicyclic gearing.

Two component epicyclic gearing.

The continued need for four men to drive the tank was solved with the Mark V which used Wilson's epicyclic gearing in 1918.

Epicyclic gearing systems also incorporate the use of an outer ring gear or annulus, which meshes with the planet gears.

The 7000 Series rear axle has a central differential and has in-board epicyclic gearing reduction units.

The overdrive consists of an electrically or hydraulically operated epicyclic gear train bolted behind the transmission unit.

Those starters not employing offset geartrains like the Chrysler unit generally employ planetary epicyclic gearing instead.

Hub gears (also called epicyclic gearing or sun-and-planet gears)

The Wilson gearbox relied on a number of epicyclic gears, coupled in an ingenious manner that was also Wilson's invention.

The shock ended Wilson's plans and he switched to building the Wilson-Pilcher motor car which used epicyclic gears.

In the epicyclic gear systems, torque is applied to the input gear or 'sun' gear.

Planetary gears (or epicyclic gears) are typically classified as simple and compound planetary gears.

Advanced hub gears offer a higher numbers of gears by using multiple epicyclic gears driven by each other.

The planet carrier is the central part of a planetary gear set.

The power split device is a planetary gear set (below).

Its transmission was a planetary gear type billed as "three speed".

The same planetary gear used can be found on a large quantity of earth movers all over Europe.

The gearbox may incorporate planetary gears, which are also compact and efficient.

It included three planetary gear sets rather than the two normally used in a four-speed automatic.

The AW is the simplest, using one set of planetary gears with four planets.

The planetary gear carrier is used as input.

The significant development was the patented design of the first planetary gear unit applied to centrifugal equipment.

Additionally the gasoline engine contributes propulsion power via the planetary gear.

With a slate-pencil screech the driver engaged his planetary gear and they were off.

This variable ratio functions in addition to the torque multiplication of the planetary gears.

A planetary gear train provides high gear reduction in a compact package.

The converter now incorporated two turbines and a planetary gear set, with a single stator.

They are also called "planetary sharpeners", in reference to their use of planetary gears.

Compound planetary gears can easily achieve larger transmission ratio with equal or smaller volume.

Two propellers are arranged one behind the other, and power is transferred from the engine via planetary gear transmission.

The obverse shows an inner circle with four planetary gears spaced equally around a sun gear.

British thinking favoured epicyclic and planetary gears, concealed in the rear hub.

The robot's waist gyrated sexily using a planetary gear.

Learn about gear ratios, gear trains and planetary gear systems.

There is no externally visible way to determine whether the transmission contains the straight-cut planetary gear set.

Torque vectoring takes place in the rear differential which contains three planetary gear and clutch sets.

The planetary gears inside the differential carrier will start to rotate because the "asphalt wheel" encounters greater resistance.

By choosing a set of components for held, input, and output, the planetary gear will increase or decrease speed and change direction.
