A team of New York University scientists has created a gear mechanism that relies on fluids to generate rotation. The invention holds potential for a new generation of mechanical devices that offer ...

The teeth of a gear are designed to mesh with those of another gear. The interlocking teeth allow the gear to transmit torque to its partner without slipping. Two meshed gears can move in exact ...

A team of seven mechanical engineers developed a novel interlock device featuring a gear-based lock and laser input. The 6” x 6” x 6” system is housed in a waterproof, dustproof enclosure designed for ...

Two spinners inside a circular container and surrounded by liquid with bubbles that help to visualize the flows. The left spinner is actively driven to rotate with a motor (not shown) and the right ...

As one of the oldest components of human engineering, gears have driven civilization for ...

A new study reimagines the 3,000-year-old technology using fluids, avoiding the most annoying limitations of teeth-driven gearing.

Company Profile: Shanghai Nodango Safety Equipment Co., Ltd. (Nudango) is a professional enterprise dedicated to providing comprehensive safety solutions, including planning, consulting, design, ...

The film *Spinning Levers* explores the fundamental mechanics of levers and gears, illustrating their role in various everyday applications and in the complex workings of a car’s transmission.

Forward-looking: For thousands of years, mechanical gears have driven human invention – from ancient chariots to robotic arms. Now, for the first time, engineers have built a gear that doesn't rely on ...
