Types of Gears
Across
- 4. Gear with angled teeth for smooth and quiet operation
- 5. Comparison between the number of teeth or speed of two gears
- 7. The rod or axle that gears are mounted on
- 8. The force or motion that enters a gear system
- 11. Special bevel gear with a 1:1 ratio and equal speed input and output
- 12. The rotational force applied to a shaft or gear
- 14. Screw-like gear that provides high torque and prevents back-driving
Down
- 1. Cone-shaped gear that changes direction at a 90-degree angle
- 2. Resistance that can reduce the efficiency of gear systems
- 3. A toothed machine part that transfers motion and power
- 6. The resulting motion or power delivered from a gear system
- 7. Gear with straight teeth used between parallel shafts
- 9. Round gear that rotates and moves a rack in a straight line
- 10. What gears like bevel and miter gears are used to change
- 13. Flat gear that moves in a straight line in a rack and pinion system
