Mechanisms
Around us we can see many moving obiects and mechanisms that produce movement that we can also call motion.
-
Linear motion mechanisms
Examples include levers and fixed, mobile and compound pulleys.
-
Fixed pulley
A fixed pulley is balanced when the effort F is equal to the resistance of the load, R: F=R
-
Compound pulley
This ts a system of fixed and moveable pulleys, often called block and tackle.
Rotary motion mechanisms
These mechanisms transmit motion and effort in a circular way, from the input to the output
They include friction drives, pulley systems, gears and worm gears.

Worm gear
-
Each time the screw rotates, the gear moves forward as many teeth as
there are grooves in the screw, usually a small number I, 2 or 3
-
Gear train
This is a system of more than two gears, connected together as shown in the diagram
Pulley trains with belts
Look at the diagram below. It's a system of pulleys, or wheels, with a belt formed by more than two wheels.
