Geneva Wheel Mechanisum 3D model

The Geneva drive or Maltese cross is a gear mechanism that translates a continuous rotation movement into intermittent rotary motion.The rotating drive wheel is usually equipped with a pin that reaches into a slot located in the other wheel (driven wheel) that advances it by one step at a time. The drive wheel also has an elevated circular blocking disc that locks the rotating driven wheel in position between steps.The name, Geneva drive, is derived from the devices earliest application in mechanical watches, which were popularized in Geneva, being the classical origin of watchmaking industry.FILE FORMAT:
