Working Model Of Drive Shaft | Torquemaster-12
Working Model Of Drive Shaft Torquemaster-12 demonstrates the acceleration and deceleration phenomenon that occurs in revolving universal joints and drive shafts at various angles. This Working Model Of Drive Shaft is driven by an electric motor with universal shaft adjustment, allowing different driveshaft angles to be selected. Speed variation effects are audibly demonstrated using toothed wheels, illustrating vibration and wear caused by angled operation. It is mounted on a mobile solid frame for classroom demonstration.
The Working Model Of Drive Shaft Torquemaster-12 demonstrates and simplifies the complex acceleration and deceleration phenomenon that occurs in revolving universal joints and drive shafts operating at various angles. This Working Model Of Drive Shaft shows how output speed varies even when the input driveshaft rotates at a constant speed.
Product Overview
The Torquemaster-12 demonstrates that even when the input driveshaft rotates at constant speed, the output driveshaft maintains a variable speed depending on the angle between them, which causes vibrations and wear over time. The higher the angle between the shafts, the more amplified this effect becomes. The model illustrates the propeller shaft, sometimes called a carden shaft, which transmits power from the gearbox to the rear axle. This Working Model Of Drive Shaft shows that the shaft normally has a tubular section and is made in one- or two-piece construction, with the two-piece arrangement supported at the mid point by a rubber-mounted bearing. Short drive shafts are also represented, used for transmitting power from the final drive assembly to the road wheels in both front and rear wheel drive layouts.
