Principle of gear units (GL 100)

demonstration of function and structure of various gears

Code GL100

 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.
