INTRODUCTION

Gears are mechanisms used to transmit mechanical power from one component to another in a machine.
The simplest gears are composed of two, one inlet and one outlet, cogwheels (the largest is called crown and the smallest pinion), which
transmit circular movement through their coupling, tooth by tooth.
There are different types of gears depending on the shape of the teeth, the position of the cogwheels, the arrangement of their axes of
rotation, etc.
Straight-cut or spur gears are used in transmissions of parallel axles, in this way, the input and output shafts are arranged in parallel. They
are one of the most used mechanisms, and are found in any type of machine: watches, toys, machine tools, etc.
The planetary gears represent a type of gear in which the input and output shafts are located on the same axle.
The Unit for the Kinematic Study of Gear Trains, "KSGT", has been designed to perform the kinematic study of spur gears and planetary
gears.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Unit for the Kinematic Study of Gear Trains, "KSGT", unit includes a pivoting rail with a fixed axle to which two more axles can be fixed
in any position in function of the feature to study.
The cogwheels may be assembled on the axles in combination, thus studying different gear ratios.
The spur gears can be studied having the pivoting rail fixed. One or two more axles, and therefore one or two more cogwheels, may be
placed on the rail.
The planetary gears may be studied having the pivoting rail loose. The pivoting rail is used to support the planetary cogwheel on which the
planetary cogwheels are located. Thus, the motion of the rail acts as input of the gear. The planet gears transmit their motion to the sun
gear, which is the output element of the gear train.
The gear ratio may be determined in both cases by counting the complete turns of the cogwheels.

KSGT/ICAI. Interactive Computer Aided Instruction Software System:

With no physical connection between unit and computer, this


complete software package consists of an Instructor Software
(EDIBON Classroom Manager -ECM-SOF) totally integrated
with the Student Software (EDIBON Student Labsoft -ESL-
SOF). Both are interconnected so that the teacher knows at any
moment what is the theoretical and practical knowledge of the
students.

Instructor Software

- ECM-SOF. EDIBON Classroom Manager (Instructor Software).


ECM-SOF is the application that allows the Instructor to register students, manage and assign tasks for workgroups, create own content to
carry out Practical Exercises, choose one of the evaluation methods to check the Student knowledge and monitor the progression related
to the planned tasks for individual students, workgroups, units, etc... so the teacher can know in real time the level of understanding of
any student in the classroom.

Innovative features:
• User Data Base Management.
• Administration and assignment of Workgroup, Task and
Training sessions.
• Creation and Integration of Practical Exercises and Multimedia
Resources.
• Custom Design of Evaluation Methods.
