Study Notes

Gear Train Concepts

Speed Ratio: Represents the ratio of the speed of the driver gear to the speed of the driven gear in a simple gear train.
Single Gear on Each Shaft: A gear train configuration where each shaft contains only one gear, often referred to as a simple gear train.
Definition of Speed Ratio: In a gear train, the speed ratio helps determine the relationship between the rotational speeds of the driving and driven gears.
Train Value: Represents the overall mechanical advantage or effectiveness of the gear train by showing how the input speed translates into output speed across multiple gears.
