It could work, if each of the "gears" were actually planetary gear systems in their own right. The center hub is the axle of the sun gear, the outer teeth are actually the exterior of the ring gear, and the planetaries are hidden under a dust cover the same color as the sun gear axle. Yeah, that would work.
Do I get any extra points on the "
Are you a geek?" test for coming up with this interpretation?
