[Michael Rechtin] decided to try his hand at designing a stackable planetary gearbox for a brushless motor that allows him to add or remove stages to change the gear ratio. The gearbox is designed ...

Such systems are effective in many cases, such as a worm gear motor for robotics and a compact worm gearbox for medical applications, thanks to the benefits they have over planetary gears.

Toyota made an important step forward when it made the Prius. Still, the secret to the car's success was not the hybrid system alone, but the transmission, which was named e-CVT. It didn't act ...

The 800-watt motor weighs a mere 5.5 lb (2.52 kg ... A sun gear – along with three polymer helical planetary gears with inner metal gears – starts by boosting torque output by about 3.2x.

General Motors and REO both released semi-automatic ... is then transmitted from the shaft to the transmission's first planetary gear set. This type of transmission has what is called hydraulic ...

Now, as the planetary gears spin ... with a joystick controlling a small electric motor that varies the gear ratio on demand through a range that takes the output drive from 0% to 600% of the ...

“The SEW P2.e is the only planetary gear unit on the market with an integrated fan coupled directly between the motor and the planetary head. Consequently, it boasts a large cooling area (two to ...
