The transmission system of an Automobile: Engineering hulk describes in detail how a transmission system of an Automobile works.
Introduction Transmissions are important for any motor vehicle to keep the motor from destroying itself. If there is no gearbox system, the car engine would turn exorbitantly quick for primary security, meaning most engines would shake themselves to pieces or overheat What is a Transmission? Transmission is the process of the connection from your engine…
Introduction Gears are a vital component in the mechanical world. They play an important role in the transfer of power and motion between two shafts. Gears are used in various machines ranging from simple hand tools to complicated spacecraft. There are different types of gear available, each with a unique design and function. Types of…

1. Noisy gearbox operation: • The bearings may be worn, in which case they will need to be replaced. • The countershaft can be worn, bent, or have a large axial play. This must be replaced with a new countershaft. • Constant-mesh gears can be worn. The only alternative is their replacement. • Lack or…

A torque converter is a type of hydraulic coupling used to transfer rotating power from a vehicle’s engine to the transmission. Replaces a mechanical clutch in an automatic transmission. The torque converter is a type of hydraulic coupling used to transmit more torque to the shaft driven by a prime mover such as an engine….
What is Overdrive? An Overdrive is a component of a transmission system that is connected to the end of the gearbox to provide maximum driving power with minimum engine input which in turn makes for a smoother and more fuel-efficient ride. It is a planetary and planetary gear arrangement arranged such that when overdrive is…
This is a manually operated transmission in which transmission changes occur between gears rotating at the same speed. The gears can roll freely or can be locked onto the layout shaft in this type of gearbox. Synchromesh Gear Box Construction: The synchronizer is positioned between two gears. So, we can use a unit for two…
Constant Mesh Gearbox was invented to push the boundaries of the sliding mesh gearbox. In this gearbox, all gears are always in gear. The gear stays fixed and does not slide like the sliding link gearbox. In this gearbox, the sliding link was replaced by gear pairs that constantly mesh, and new gear-shifting devices called…
Components of a Sliding Mesh Gearbox 1. Main axis- It is the shaft used as the output shaft in a sliding link on which gear sets with internally splined grooves are neatly arranged. The outer surface of this shaft is splined so the gears can easily slide on this shaft to mesh with the appropriate…
