Gear Trains Apparatus- Engineering Lab Training Systems.
Technical Description
This apparatus is used to demonstrate
belt drives, wheel and disk drives, and gear trains. Basic terminology
and relationships, e.g. the transmission ratio, direction of rotation
reversal, reference circle and modulus, the function of intermediate
gears, and so on can be clearly demonstrated. A solid frame made of
anodised aluminium section forms the base for the unit. The bearings for
the pulleys and gears are attached to the T-slots in the profile using
clamping levers. These are easy to release and can be slid horizontally
making a wide range of different set-ups possible. All experiments are
carried out using manual power. The size of the unit ensures that the
experiment is clearly visible even for larger groups of students.
