Definitions:

Crown Gear

A large disc-shaped gear usually driven at right angles by a smaller pinion gear. It alters the torque path direction in a final drive carrier by 90 degrees, so that a longitudinal drive shaft can deliver transverse torque to the driving wheels.

Backlash

The gapping or play between mating gear teeth usually measured with thickness gauges or a dial indicator.

Fatigue-Type Failures

Failures in materials or components that occur due to repetitive stress or strain over time, leading to cracks or breaks.

Gear Components

The individual parts that make up a gear system, including gears, shafts, bearings, and others, which transmit power and motion.
