Abstract- To transmit torque from rotating power source to source to another device with the help of gear and gear trains.

change the physical rotational direction of power transmission.
I. INTRODUCTION Another use of gearbox is to change the axis of the rotary
motion of a plane with or without gear reduction. [4]
In mechanical Engineering applications, mostly the power is
transmitted with the help of gears. There is a wide range of
gears for various applications such as very minute gears for
wristwatches and there are also very large gears that are used
in ships, trucks, and the equipment used for mining. In many
pieces of machinery such as automobiles, washing machines,
blenders, construction equipment, fuel pump, mills, mining
engines, etc.; gears are a vital element of mechanism. Toothed
headgears are used to change the direction, speed, and power
between input and output shaft.
When you see the inner construction of the gearbox,
you will observe that it is very simple. It consists of two gears Fig. 1 Gear Arrangement
coupled with each other mounted on two different shafts. The
gear may be spur, bevel, worm or helical. For gear reduction The gearbox has variously used in agricultural,
the diameter of input gear must be smaller than the diameter of industrial, constructional, mining, and automotive equipment,
the output gear. If an only change in direction is required then etc. and to maximize its efficiency gearbox with 8-speed
the size of the gear may be the same. Spur gears are used for variation is used. The highly effective 9-speed gearbox has
heavy load applications, but they are noisy in operation. Due to many benefits. The most important benefit is an increase in
gradual engagement, helical gears are used silent in operation. fuel efficiency. Another benefit is a fast locking torque
Hence they are used for light-load applications. If a change of converter that allows for quick engagement and limited-slip.
plane of rotation is required then hypoid gears are used. [3] This results in less wear and tear on the clutches inside the unit
In the power transmission system, the controlled and longer life. An additional benefit is that it provides smooth
application of power is provided by the transmission shifts that happen so quickly that they often sensed by the
mechanism. Transmission refers to the gearbox, which is used driver. In Automobiles, the gearbox is mainly used to supply
to provide speed and torque conversion from a rotating power

V. METHODOLOGY
Step 1: Assembly Creation - First of all we created our gearbox assembly in CATIA and saved the file in .igs format, to export it
into ANSYS workbench environment.

Step 3: Boundary Conditions - Boundary conditions are a necessary part of finite element analysis. So here the moment of 206.65
Nm is applied as driving torque.
