Gear selector Explanation: I'm not sure what this piece of machinery does, hence low confidence. However, it seems that one pinion (gear wheel) is being made to mesh with another. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 12 mins (2010-03-05 14:07:56 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- This answer is OK as far as it goes, which probably isn't far enough. A bit more context (eg is the text about car engines?) should clinch it. |
