Thank you,

Thank you for your reply. What you have said is true for torque multiplication using speed reduction gear box. In case of torque amplification, torque alone is amplified without change in speed. Please look for mechanical torque amplifier in your search, you would understand my query. Thank you.

In torque amplification, torque is multiplied without change in its input speed. Then this amplifier if coupled inbetween a motor and gene rator would it not be a over unity machine?

The axle nut,tends to tighten further while the wheel is running. The torque on the nut increases by the taper provided on the face of the nut. So to loosen the nut, a impact wrench is used to overcome the friction of nut and wheel. In case of bolt few blows on the bolt head relieves the jam. It...

The rotation could be restricted to a pre-determined angle by using a spring loaded detent. The detent mechanism is fixed on the hinge of the hatch or the white board.

What is the maximum torque amplification that can be achieved using a mechanical torque amplifier?
