Re: pic: Team 701's 3 CIM In-line 2 Speed Shifting Transmission Prototype

he is referring to the cim gear closest to the shifting mechanism. not only does it carry the load of the cim its on but it will carry the load of the 2 cims farther out . the farthest cim will be at normal stress the second cim gear in the middle has the load of 2 cims on it and the cim gear closest to the pneumatic cylinder will have all the torque from all 3 cims passing thru it
