A system of gears that has a central gear wheel (sun gear) around which others (planet gears) rotate, often within an outer ring.
This planetary gear train consists of a sun gear (yellow), planet gears (blue) and carrier (green) inside a ring gear (red)
A system of gears that has a central gear wheel (sun gear) around which others (planet gears) rotate, often within an outer ring.
The red marks show the relative displacement of the sun gear and carrier, when the sun gear is rotated 180° clockwise and the ring gear is held fixed.
A system of gears that has a central gear wheel (sun gear) around which others (planet gears) rotate, often within an outer ring.
In this example, the carrier (green) is held stationary while the sun gear (yellow) is used as input. Analysis assumes a common gear design modulus. The planetary gears (blue) turn in a ratio determined by the number of teeth in each gear. Here, the ratio is −+27/ 18 , or −+3/ 2 ; meaning that each planet gear turns at 3/ 2 the rate of the sun gear, in the opposite direction. An outer ring gear is not shown.
