cogwheel
Machinery's toothed disc
A cogwheel is a wheel with teeth around its edge that mesh with the teeth of another wheel to transmit motion—also called a gear or gearwheel.
The cogs are the individual teeth.
Cogwheel appears in figurative uses about interconnected systems: Each department is a cogwheel in the larger machine.
