  • This is a simple dual worm gear drive. It turns two turntables using two worm gears spinning in the same direction at the same speed using one motor. It was really quite easy to build.

      this could be really helpful

    how to use a worm gear
  •  
    this will be helpfull

      very helpful and useful
  •  
    The bottom of this page explains how to create differnent gear ratios and how they work
  •  
    they are using a diffrent program
  •  
    we could make the program in labview, they were just using a piece of wood on books.

      this is a good idea to get the most out of our gears

  • 10:30:40 = 1:4 9:27 = 1:3 10:20 = 1:2 10:13:20 = 1:2 Overall 1:48

      useful for different configurations, good to know
  •  
    This shows us the torque of the motor. Yes we have 9 volt batterys, the bottom of the page next to a picture are some gear ratios.
  •  
    it shows how we can adjust the gear ratios to give the robot more or less power while driving

    sorta of a change in design than the last one i had thought was good

    this looks like it wikll work
  •  
    this is a good idea but it would be hard to change the gears in a short amount of time
  •  
    this might be a possible solution but it might not have enough power to make it up the 22.5 degree incline.
  •  
    looks good
  •  
    Great pictures Tommy. We can use some of these ideas to build our robot

    this looks good
  •  
    this is not very helpful. we already know about the sensors
  •  
    Ya i agree we dont need to know about the sensors

Intro to Gears - 1 views

  • First....What is torque?: Torque is a twisting force- (it doesn't do any 'work' itself- it is simple an application of energy). Work (or 'stuff') happens, when torque is applied and movement occurs.

    It a good idea we will just have to narrow the body to within 9ins

    good for sound sensor
  •  
    it measures the sound at different locations and different distances

      thats the best ratio i could find for the tools we have
  •  
    this is good to show what gears to use
  • ...1 more comment...

    This is like a calculator you insert the gear it gives you the ratio
  •  
    this is very useful in helping us decide which gears to use and what ratio to set them at
  •  
    This might be the key thing for gear ratios

    we could use this logic, when the sound sensor detects the sound indicating the start of the race that would be the starting condition for the program ps. i know that we do not use the same programming as in the picture
  •  
    But what if people are speaking? you would have to set it to a certain frequency.

      could be really fun to build

      Great info
  •  
    gears and construction on how to get high speeds
  •  
    This wouldn't work going up hill at 22.5 degress, and how would we get the nxt brick and the rest of the body to move that fast??

    possible design for the construction of the dragster

    this looks loke a good idea

    good for setting up our ratios

    this is helpful for creating less complicated block diagrams
  •  
    This is really good to know for when everything starts to get really crazy
