gear wheel
Meshing mechanical component
A gear wheel is a toothed wheel designed to mesh with another toothed component, transmitting rotational motion and force between machine parts.
The teeth interlock precisely so that turning one gear wheel turns the other.
Gear wheels appear in everything from clocks to car transmissions, controlling speed and torque: The gear wheel had worn down and needed replacing.
