Transmission system combining gears and chains - provides output force greater than input force but at same speed

摘要

The input shaft (7) carries a flange (6) on which the pinions (2) and (3) are mounted on the shafts (4) and (5). The pinions (2) and (3) mesh with the internally toothed wheel (8). The sprocket wheels (13) and (14) also mounted on the shafts (4) and(5), drive the sprocket wheels (11) and (12) through the chains (9) and (10). The drive is then transmitted through the pinions (21) and (15) and through the pinions (20) and (16) to the output gear (18) mounted on the shaft (17). The gear box is intended for use with the inventor's compressed air motor. It is claimed that the output speed is equal to the input speed but the output force is several times greater than input.
