Antikythera Astronomical Device, the oldest calculator with multiple-functions, is driven by gear trains with five subsystems. The authors synthesized four feasible 1-DOF designs of the lost ...
The transmission in a semi-truck does a lot of heavy lifting, but how do they actually work? Here are all the types of transmission these heavy duty trucks use.
Firstly, when low-gear is engaged, a number of components will move out-of-sync with the input shaft, including all three planetary gears (which is what provides the low ratio in the first place).
Jeep parent Stellantis might take a system that's drawn comparisons to Toyota's original planetary-gearset hybrid layout on to new off-road adventures.
Among the highlights are the proprietary TUF ONE planetary gear reducer and the GP200 and GP300 liquid-cooled universal quick disconnect (UQD) couplers, designed for AI server applications.
February 1 through 9: The Planet Parade Continues As we discussed last month, late January and early February will provide a stage for a Planet Parade, with six planets lining up in the night sky.
