When one gear is turned, the adjacent gears will turn in the opposite direction. For example, if you turn a gear clockwise, the gear directly connected to it will turn counterclockwise. This alternating motion continues through the sequence of connected gears. Thus, each gear's direction of rotation alternates with its neighbors.

No, while one gear is turning the other the other gear should move the opposite direction. I learned this in robotics class.

Do the Gears in a Belt Drive Move in the Same Direction?

In a belt drive system, the gears do not move in the same direction. When one gear (the driver) rotates, it causes the belt to move in one direction, which in turn makes the other gear (the driven) rotate in the opposite direction. This is due to the nature of how belts wrap around the gears.

Why are the two outboard landing gear bogies on the 747 moveable?

They are NOT. The two inboard bogies ARE "steerable". This is done to reduce the turn radius because of the length of the aircraft. As the nose wheel is turned, the body gear (the inboards) turn in the opposite direction.

Where does a worm gear work?

It is used to change the direction of rotation. For instance on a rear wheel drive car the engine drive train is rotating in an axis running the length of the vehicle so all that spinning would be wasted if it the direction wasn't changed to cause the rear axle to turn in an axis running from side to side. The worm gear in this application is called the "pinion" and the wheel is called the "ring". so pinion is rotating clockwise and as it engages the ring gear it changes the lateral direction to cause the axle to turn.


What makes a axle easy to turn?

gear oil generally. With both wheels off the ground you can turn one wheel and the other will go the opposit direction unless it is a Posi-track/limited slip differencial. In that case the transmission will have to be in netural and both wheels will turn the same direction.
