A simple machine is a device that takes a single applied force to change the magnitude or direction of a single load force. Simple machines are the building blocks of all more complicated machines.

There are six simple machines: lever, wheel and axle, pulley, screw,wedge, and inclined plane. See the related link for descriptions and examples of each of these machines.
