2 TRANSMISSIONS Transmission is a mechanism intended to transmit power from the prime mover (an engine or a motor) to the driven machine.

3 CLASSIFICATION OF TRANSMISSIONS Transmissions by friction Friction drive Belt drive

4 CLASSIFICATION OF TRANSMISSIONS Transmissions by engagement Gearing Worm gearing Power screw Chain drive

5 CLASSIFICATION OF TRANSMISSIONS Transmissions with direct contact Gearing Friction drive Worm gearing

6 CLASSIFICATION OF TRANSMISSIONS Transmissions by flexible connection Chain drive Belt drive

7 BASIC PARAMETERS OF POWER TRANSMISSIONS Pinp – input power in kW; Pout – output power in kW; ninp - rotational speed of the input shaft in rpm or - angular velocity of the input shaft in sec-1; nout - rotational speed of the output shaft in rpm or - angular velocity of the output shaft in sec-1.
