Växelförhållningen
Växelförhållningen refers to the ratio between the number of teeth on two meshing gears or the ratio between the diameters of two pulleys connected by a belt. This ratio determines how the speed and torque are transmitted between the driving and driven components. A higher gear ratio, for example, means the driven gear rotates slower but with more torque than the driving gear. Conversely, a lower gear ratio results in higher speed but lower torque. This concept is fundamental in mechanical engineering, particularly in transmissions, gearboxes, and other systems where power is transferred.
The calculation of växelförhållningen is straightforward. For gears, it is typically calculated by dividing the number
