Gearless Power Transmission
The Gearless transmission for parallel shafts is a device for transmitting motions between the Parallel shafts.The synthesis of this mechanism would reveals that it comprises number of pins would be in between 3 to 8, if more the pins smoother the operation.These pins rotate inside hollow cylinders thus formatting a rotary pair.The Z-pins (or Z-links) are free to rotate in the holes, which are drilled parallel to the axis of shafts.The angle for which the pins are bent to must precisely the same for each one, and the holes in the shafts must be accurately drilled, both radially and tangentially.All parts of this coupler move when the shafts rotate.This is a very smooth-acting device, and the minimal power loss.It can be run at nearly any speed, even at high Speed , and is very quiet.It is fascinating to watch in action, with the pins rotating in holes as it rotates.Unlike universal joints, there is no performance loss by increasing shaft offset.
