Gear Wheels St. Louis
The gear wheel is a basic mechanism. A gear is a wheel that has accurately-cut teeth around its edges with a shaft which passes through its centre. Its purpose is to transmit rotary motion and force. Gears are used in groups of two or more. A group of gears is called a gear train. The gears in a gear train are arranged so that the teeth interlock with each other.
When two gears of different sizes are interlocking the larger of the two is called the wheel, while the smaller is called the pinion. The input force and motion is applied by the driver gear. The output motion and force is transmitted by the driven gear. Either the wheel or the pinion can be the driver gear.
