Transmission system-A brief intro and a doubt in it?
Today I would like to give a small introduction on Transmission system .Ok first we can start with what are the requirements of a transmission ? A transmission system helps to transmit power from Engine to the Wheels which helps us to drive. A transmission system usually consists of following parts namely:a clutch, gearbox, propeller shaft, differential and rear axle shaft. Then the manual transmission system had been overtaken by automatic transmission .Then clutch is replaced by a fluid coupling or a torque converter. Then gearbox also had some changes .It has many variants such as constant mesh , synchromesh, sliding, CVT, etc. Ford was the first one to use simple planetary gearbox and used it in Ford T model. During that time nearly half of the worlds cars were Ford T model. Nowadays there are many technical advancements happening around us and we still growing every time to reach a 100% efficiency.
My question was Whether there is any other medium such as air used as a medium in transmission(earlier fluid –as used in fluid coupling/torque converter, mechanical linkage-normal transmission(clutch))?
If found any please report here……
