Mechanical Definitions |
Reach Rod : It is a rod motion in a link which is used
in order to transmit motion from the reversing rod to the lifting
shaft. |
Reaction Turbines : It is turned by reactive force rather
than by a direct push or impulse. In reaction turbine the water
enters the wheel under pressure and flows over the vanes. It
uses mechanical force to push the material by physically lifting
or by the force of compression. |
Reaction Wheel : It is a device which is capable to store
angular momentum which may be used in a space ship in order
to provide torque to effect or maintain a given orientation.
|
Reamer : It is a tool which is used for finishing and
giving accurate size to the drilled holes. |
Receiving Station : It is a location or a device on conveyor
systems where bulk material is loaded or otherwise received
onto the conveyor. |
Reciprocating Compressor : It is a compressor which uses
pistons which are driven by a crankshaft to deliver gases at
high pressure. |
Reciprocating Flight Conveyor : It is a reciprocating
beam with hinged flights which advance materials along a conveyor
trough. |
Reciprocating-plate Feeder : It is a back-and-forth shaking
tray which is designed to feed abrasive materials, pulverized
coal, into process units, for example. |
Reciprocating Screen : It is a horizontal solids-separation
screen (sieve) which is oscillated back and forth by an eccentric
gear. It is used for solids classification. |
Redler Conveyor : It is a conveyor in which material
is dragged through a duct by skeletonized or U-shaped impellers
which move the material in which they are submerged because
the resistance to slip through the element is greater than the
drag against the walls of the duct. |
Reduction Gear : It is a gear train which lowers the
output speed. |
