demonstration of function and structure of various gears

 Description:

• Gears are machine elements that are classified as transmission or conversion elements.
• They are responsible for transferring torque and speed between guiding members such as wheels or pulleys.
• The motion is transferred either by means of non-positive connections (with gears, friction wheel) or positive connections (with gears, toothed belts, chains).
• The GL 100experimental unit illustrates the function and structure of belt drives, friction wheels and gear drives.
• Fundamental concepts and relationships, such as transmission ratio, change of direction of rotation, pitch and module or the function of intermediate gears can be explained clearly.
• A sturdy anodised aluminium frame forms the base of the unit.
• The bearings of the wheels are attached to the frame by clamping levers in T-grooves.
• They are easy to detach and can be moved horizontally, thereby allowing a wealth of different setups.
• All experiments are powered by hand.
• The size of the experimental unit ensures that the experiments are clearly visible even for a larger group of students.
