This system demonstrates efficient gearless transmission of power at right angles. This saves gear manufacturing time and costs along with teeth matching and gear placement issues. The elbow mechanism is an efficient design of gearless transmission technique and the kinematic system that allows for efficient power/motion transmission at right angles. This mechanism allows for motion transmission at 90 degree angles between the driver and the driven shafts.
We use mounts to mount a DC motor with shaft coupled to it. We then use 90 degree bent rods to link driver shaft with the driven shaft. We use accurate drilling with relatively spaced and diametered holes to attach the connection rods with precision. We then use mounts to hold the driven rod in precise position. Now the motor can be powered using 12V supply and can be used to drive the other shaft using elbow mechanism.
