paradoxical gear set 1,2,3 teeth

[Damagicus]

this would produce to much heat as there are to many touching parts

[TheLivirus]

Are there any applications for such gear, or is it just for show?

[3vi14n931]

Easy, is a set of screw gears with 2:1:3 ratio.

[tramfahrermd]

was ist das denn??

[moh97gt]

i find this >> sexy

[sam3d]

why does this make me horny?

[rizzay421]

Yay, spirals!!!

[cfb36]

We're going to need alot of lube

[jacquesmaurel]

seach for : the paradoxical gear explained on Youtube.

[LordHawke13]

Oh fucking hell... They're not gears... Ever put two screws together by the teeth and turned one? They turn in the same direction...

[mattox64210]

good innovation but very poor efficiency

[rvandell2]

It's a few screws spinning in the same direction... Not that hard to understand...

[shukfahid]

@rvandell2 yer do doubt. they arnt actually gears by definition...still cool though.

[philip21786]

Max RPM: 7.5 revolutions per minute.

[jollincones]

Yeah, where's the paradox here? Of course they are spinning the same way... Those aren't toothed gears...

[ytdcfjhvjvp0j]

That's not paradoxal...

[Stealthsoldier20]

What application would this be for? Doesn't exactly look all that efficient.

[elguarpoe]

Hes a WITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mhatung]

this is how a cork screw supercharger works but it remains cool with an intercooler and air...if this was internal it would not work.

[fast50racer228]

@mhatung Not true. An internal supercharger is cooled by air, and in TBI setups they are cooled by fuel. An internal roots style supercharger produces hot boost which is then cooled by an air to water intercooler that is mounted between the intake manifold and the supercharger itself.

[mhatung]

yeah friction is huge in this system also it isnt paradoxical. I can clearly see how it works.

[PbNTheory]

wouldnt there be a shit load of friction? yes. that would require a LOT of cooling. more then regular gl-5 synthetic could provide. what application might this be used?

[wakeupneo311]

seems like there would be alotta friction, nothin a lil gear lube cant fix :D

[1049402903]

Human centipede

[huntkcreations]

Similar to worm gears

[SeAnStAmOn]

I need a 10 hour loop.

[JosephMelia]

It's a good idea,utilizing the difference in the shape of the cog's width rather than their circumference teeth to achieve all wheels moving in the same direction..I like how instead of using a drill bit style 45 degree cog,you opt for a more organic design.

Now you just need to make molds and produce metal versions..An upgraded version might have spring mounted bearings inlaid..Nice .Good luck with future endeavors.

[suprakilzz26]

Cool design, but wouldn't gears like that have a very short life due to wear?

[Wochensau]

These are very interesting, but they look gay as well.

[yeaalrightiamawake]

that would make ONE HAMMER DOWN taffy puller

[MrLovemusic1111]

-.:))

[XLAWANGELS]

awesome man awesome. def a thumbs up.

[abunaiim]

I think there would be too much friction.

[Triple88a]

@abunaiim They are not touching, This is the same design as a twin screw supercharger but now theres a 3rd..

[odkiller1]

@abunaiim there is about as much friction there as wet .........kitty i guess i can get away with that

[psycophobia]

[therubburduk]

for what aplication would this be used for

[CineBoxStudio]

is it bad i understand this perfectly?

[therubburduk]

@CineBoxStudio maybe your brainier than you thought you were.

[chasefeasr69]

love it

[EliosMoonElios]

Los tornillos se aflojan con las vibraciones pues les dan espacio para moverse y la forma en que un tornillo puede moverse es girando hacia afuera. Quiero ver si puede hacerlo igual con tornillos de madera

[justanothertut]

MY HEAD IS FULL OF FUCK

[matanuialive2010]

does this work like a worm gear

[wordreet]

@matanuialive2010 Yeap. But has high frictional losses. It appears to be used in some automotive differentials for limited slip.

[astriknon]

@matanuialive2010 It basically is a worm gear on wormgear setup, just larger yet shorter flutes/teeth.

[angryadrien]

this is like an optical illusion that actually works!

[rparker069]

my reaction: WHAT THE FUCK!?!?!?!?!?!?

[jacquesmaurel]

search for: the paradoxical gear explained

[nickernosher]

speed and load, fail , but its cool.. i mean whats the adv? surface area? genuinely interested from a mechanics point of view

[Silenthawk98]

HOLY SHIT IM BAKED.

[briangman3]

Very cool, don't know what it could be used for. Hey it would be very cool if faces were carved into it.

[DumpYourTelevision]

Very pretty, but with opposing directions I am sure this would soon wear out.

Novelty piece?

[ophios]

Genious, and very beautiful in it's simplicity.

[TheKernwhole]

These are not gears. Gears by definition do not slip. You have made a system of non-perpendicular cams. Congratulations.

[BrickMuffin]

@TheKernwhole what about helical gears

[TheKernwhole]

@BrickMuffin what about them? Helical gears do not slip either. They work exactly the same as spur gears with one exception. they overlap the engage and disengagement of the teeth to allow smoother power transmission and the sharing of the load between more than one set of tooth lands.

[BrickMuffin]

@TheKernwhole i know how helical gears work. what i dont understand is what you mean by slip. i dont see how this varies that much from your common helical gear. the only difference here is that your base circle, addendum, and dedendum are all wacked out.

[Gamekid321]

Paradoxical? You probably mean redundant.

And the comments he made about Googling were probably auto-replies to emails about new comments. I *think* that's possible to do.

[Nustyap]

Weird that rods and white parts of the gears are turning with different speed.

[bkboy747]

looks like some crazy new supercharger

[Winstonsicle]

It's a cool idea, but it's really just a cam with two sliding followers. You'd get better efficiency with a chain or belt drive.

[AlBarathur]

Explain to me the point of this "gear" if you need another gear set or belt, to make it to work?

[117DieHard]

not very paradoxical.... its a worm gear.... duh 

[TechGeek95]

Why are they all spinning in the same direction?

[madmax2069]

@TechGeek95 because they are not like a normal toothed gear in one spins the opposite direction. they push each other around in the same direction. or you can watch the video reply /watch?v=mxe3Fh0MVeY&feature=w­atch_response

[TechGeek95]

@madmax2069 Wouldn't that create a lot of friction?

[madmax2069]

@TechGeek95 no, why would it. think of it like a boat propeller pushing on water, but instead of water its another gear. 

[TechGeek95]

@madmax2069 but as they spin the gears rub against each other.

[gyped]

cool, what would this be uniquely used for where other cogs & gears are not?

[kippy1997]

That is beautiful. Nicely done.

[TheRealJnZ]

problem? :U

[Tzstep]

Seems like a nightmare.  What would you use this for?

[emanuel0831]

I want to try that with my own teeth! :D

[11kungfu11]

I think over coming friction will be the thing for this design. Handy hint magnetic feilds are very much like a cog with teeth *wink wink*

[LCARS43278]

That was SWEET!

[satan31337]

MY BRAIN HURTS

[REALdingdongwalawala]

instead of the drive force transfered in a radial patern, it uses a linear patern perpendicular to the rotational force applied causing the "gears" or "screws" to turn in the same direction... for example; take 2 screws and place them together in opposite directions so that you have one head on each end and roll them both at the same time between your fingers (they both turn the same direction)... this is the same mechanism used in "superchargers"

[badfish126]

I wish I knew his name so that I could search for it on google for more informations... oh well

[danjoelabrenica]

@badfish126 trolololo

[MrCriticOfAll]

@badfish126 Good luck with finding his name.

[freshkryp69]

@badfish126 WHO?

[stamp748]

@badfish126 LMAO!!!

[Kevinmham]

Anyone catch his name ?! I think I missed it !

[michiel2047]

ok, his name is jacques maurel.

[matondia]

A lot of friction!

[ttocskcaj]

@matondia A lot of lube ;)

[MrSierra125]

What are they used for IRL?

[Gl1tChXbLiTz]

i guess the guy wants us to google his name.

[Alias828]

not a paradox, it's just physics. 

[BunDownChoons]

@Alias828 it is a paradox, a conundrum if you will.

[Alias828]

@BunDownChoons Hardly

[BunDownChoons]

oh. i am perplexed. it is a paradox

[bigtoyota479]

Easy enough. One worm, two worm, and three worm gears. Center gear is drive, gear on left is 1/2 of center speed, gear on right is 1/3 of center speed. Interesting.

[tabhorian]

Not a paradox at all. They are actually worm gears intermeshing. No broken mechanics here.

[killseeker24]

hahawut.

[lifestudent100]

they're all turning the same direction because they're all worm gears, and there's not much friction between them. they also have their teeth/lobes in the same ccw (or cw, depending on which way you think of it) spiral pattern.

[jacquesmaurel]

thank you for your mail, search for my name (jacques maurel) on google for more informations

[draconpost]

I felt awkward watching this o_O

[Taunuslunatic]

Is this gear set any useful?

[TeeWeeQcKsteel]

have a look at the spiral...it turns right...the torque works against, turns to the left.

[TeeWeeQcKsteel]

know how that works :-) it's easy to understand

[daraghkinch]

Archimedes does it again!

[99Chemicals]

What happens if you run it with the 1st or 3rd gear instead of the middle one? Would it even work?

[Mrw0fflez]

my brain wold like its virginity back please

[TeeWeeQcKsteel]

@Mrw0fflez does it has been fucked?

[COCOT20]

this thing scares the shit out of me !!!

[joeeandshane]

@COCOT20 omg =( me too !!!

[debloid1988]

Soap?

[abcpat100]

It's pretty much just a worm gear.

[Ibringthetruth1]

screw drive

[odmcarp]

that's cool.

[jacquesmaurel]

Yes I heve the cadmodel, search for my name (jacques maurel) on google for more informations and to see a photo of the cadmodel.

[checkit8607]

Has the makings for a cool decorative work of art/instalation...

[eddie100]

Friction loss of energy makes it a work of art.

[Rossavuable]

Do you've 3D CAD model of it?

[simondr70]

Lets says you make it way bigger with hollow parts allowing color changing led lighting with strobe effects glow through the parts, same slow rotation it would be a great wall decoration in a club or lounge .

[rasprot]

seems to be a segment of an helicoidal endless screw.

[CyberAsomatous]

Its a worm gear. there is no paradox.

[jacquesmaurel]

thank you for your mail, search for my name (jacques maurel) on google for more informations

[The50nuggets]

@jacquesmaurel are you german ?

[kr09d]

@jacquesmaurel You repeat yourself a lot, search for repetitive (re-pe-tit-tive) on google for more informations

[grandexandi]

This is very interesting! Is it used in anything?

[L00kng]

I love this. The center drives the two side gears, yes? And they are all turning in the same direction, which is normally not possible, yes? It works because the simulated 'tooth" movement is actually from the background towards the foreground instead of right to left or visa versa. Normal tooth movement in gears would be right to left and visa versa. Awesome!!

[MrROTD]

this way you can have different gear ratios without changing diameters

[hknboss]

purpose ?

[MichiHabuke]

looks good but its not efficient

[L1tezpeed]

Can you still do it if the surfaces have extremely high coefficient of friction.

[friedchicken1981]

this is geniotic, lot more drag though, but nice

[hwninja92]

lol nice power transfer 

[moviejacker]

Very low torque quality. Liable to jam easily

[jacquesmaurel]

thank you for your mail, search for my name (jacques maurel) on google for more informations.

[ZBHampton]

looks like a "roots" style supercharger!

[TheAtomicCARROT1000]

well...

My mind broke while watching other crazy gear videos so this is just

STRANGE

[lokeycmos]

too cool!

[Robinpus]

you are a genious!

[inkylion93]

WTF!!! it's looks crazy!!!

[gabrielceolato2]

Its simpleeee !!! first you...oh...then..maybe here ,,and no ...ok

[DragonXflyer]

Very unique perspective on gear ratio.

[jacquesmaurel]

@DragonXflyer Thanks, please visit my website there is an explanation in English

[jacquesmaurel]

here is the URL for the explanation: jacquesmaurel "dot" com

[lightninguitarsolo]

look, its a really slow supercharger...



[meanman1992]

do these have any practical use, I mean there is so much rubbing I con only imagine these wearing out quickly under load

[squigy97]

it's no paradox, it's a bitchin skrew gear.

[WhiteHawkUK]

Short screw gears - nothing paradoxical... but still cool to watch. :)

[Disemboweller]

I see how that works. Interesting curiosity. I bet the thrust forces are pretty brutal and if it were made out of anything less slippery than nylon it would bind. Great thinking though. Fascinating to watch.

[locouk]

I've just wasted 310 seconds of my life watching this 10 times.

[IOIOOIIOIO]

Can you use them as a standard set as well, or do they only work as a paradoxical set?

[sagatyba]

oh

[Loosewire2]

I find this oddly sensual.

[Synetearis]

@Loosewire2 thank god, so i am not the only one...

[idioticrandomguy]

If it were at a different angle then it would be an illusion. but I think I know how it works

[paintballgundown8]

Triple Screw Supercharger

[tkerkel3679]

It reminds me of how slugs move when they're in heat. So graceful.

[popnstart]

Thats cool, never seen that before. Thanks for posting. Later, Rick.

[Kadda67]

focus: the gears are spinning in the same direction

[simplebeep]

I like paradoxes that aren't paradoxes at all!

[trontrontronbin]

3D cycloid gear ?



[lianchao1988]

It's more like cam and follower

[byugrad1024]

These are just worm gears.

[BahamaUncleLee]

now try to make all three gear connect and see if they will turn >:)

[BladeLigerV]

And the point of this iiiiiiiiisssss?

[SuperDeluxe80]

@BladeLigerV

"look what i can do" thats the point

[catdelks]

MIND FFFFFUUUUUUUUCK

[WinglessShinobi]

mind officially blown

[jasonsalajan]

It looks cool if u fast forward!

[catalinaumbert]

Will it float?
