Un’opera al museo
The model consists of three selectable gear ratios. A lantern gear in the shape of a truncated cone engages with three toothed wheels of different diameters. It is this lantern pinion, operated by a crank, that transmits motion to the three wheels. These wheels rotate at different speeds, corresponding to the time taken to complete a full turn. The device, as schematized in the model, could be applied to various types of machinery.
