There are many, many examples. Generally, rotating shafts are used to transmit power from a producer to a user device. A few examples: Drive shaft in an automobile- transmits power from the engine to the wheels. Propeller shaft in a ship- transmits power form the engine to the propeller. Pump shaft- transmits power from a motor to the pump impeller. Rotating shafts are all over the place. You can find dozens of examples in the typical appliances in any typical home.

What does overdrive mean?

There are two shafts in a transmission - an input shaft and an output shaft. The drive ratio is determined by the number of full turns the input shaft makes for each full turn of the output shaft. For example, if it took 1.5 turns of the input shaft for the output shaft to make a full rotation, you'd have a 1.5:1 ratio - this is known as underdrive, or gear reduction. If the input shaft made one complete rotation for each rotation of the output shaft, you would have a 1:1 ratio - this is known as direct drive. When the input shaft makes less than a full rotation for each full rotation of the output shaft, that's overdrive. For example, the fourth (overdrive) gear in a 4L60E transmission has a .70 overdrive ratio (i.e., .7:1), so it would make 7/10th of a complete rotation for each full rotation of the output shaft.


Will a larger gear on the driving shaft increase the speed of rotation of the driven shaft?

no it will slow it down


How do you measure speed of rotation of a shaft?

The speed of rotation of a shaft can be measured using a tachometer. A tachometer works by measuring the rotational speed of the shaft in revolutions per minute (RPM) or rotations per second. It provides a digital or analog display of the shaft's speed.


How do you reverse the rotation of a PTO?

To reverse the rotation of a PTO (power take-off) shaft, you will need to disconnect the PTO shaft from the source of power, rotate it 180 degrees, and reconnect it. This will reverse the direction of rotation of the PTO shaft. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions and safety guidelines when doing this.


What is output shaft sensor signal?

The output shaft sensor signal is used to determine the speed and rotation of the shaft. The allows for monitoring of performance and efficiency.


What is transmission with overdrive?

It means that it has at least one gear where the output shaft rotates at a higher rate than the input shaft. So, if you have a transmission with a .70 overdrive ratio, it means the transmission output shaft makes one full rotation for ever 7/10ths of a rotation from the input shaft.


Do you know what equipment is required to control the speed of motor shaft rotation angle of motor shaft and reverse the direction of motor shaft?

Variable Frequency Drive


What is a tachogenerator in control system?

a device to measure rotation speed of a shaft as a proportional voltage


What is the definition of dwell?

The rate, measured in degrees of shaft rotation, at which an electrical circuit cycles on and off.


What is the use of oldham's coupling?

To transmit torque or rotation from one shaft to another when their axis are not in line.


What end of an ac motor do you look at to determine clockwise or counterclockwise rotation?

The end the shaft comes out.


Where is the Crank Sensor in a 2001 Malibu?

The crank sensor on a 2001 Malibu is located on the bottom of the engine near the crank shaft. It monitors the rotation and speed of the crank shaft.
