	Chapter 13 - Power trains
		In a vehicle, the mechanism that transmits the power of the engine to the wheels or tracks and accessory equipment is called the power train.
		They are designed to have great pulling power, to move at high speeds, to travel in reverse as well as forward, and to operate on rough terrain as well as smooth roads.
		The power trains of automobiles and light trucks driven by the two rear wheels consist of a clutch, a transmission, a propeller shaft, a differential, and driving axles (fig.

	Patent 5456634: Torsion damping apparatus for use with friction clutches in the power trains of motor vehicles
		a flywheel connectable to a power train, said flywheel being coaxial with and rotatably supported on said driving member by a rolling bearing, said flywheel comprising a section extending in a radial direction, said section confronting said driving member in an axial direction of said flywheel and being substantially parallel to said driving member;
		The invention relates to torsion damping apparatus or assemblies, especially to torsion damping apparatus which can be installed between the internal combustion engine and the variable-speed or change-speed transmission of a motor vehicle to transmit torque between the input element of the transmission and the engine when the friction clutch of the vehicle is engaged.
		The primary purpose of the connectors 662 is to facilitate and simplify the installation of the flange 629 between the discs 624 and 625 of the damper 614.

		The gear ratios are around 9.0:1 and this means that the motor is developing peak power when the head speed is quite high, in the 1750 rpm range.
		If you do that, the motor may not develop enough power to be able to fly the helicopter, as it will be operating well down in its power curve.
		Ignoring losses and tail rotor power consumption, the horsepower developed at the motor is the same as the horsepower developed at the head.

		The SRA say expanding the platform would involve moving power cables and re-siting signals, at huge cost to the taxpayer.
		Slam-door trains avoided the problem by keeping one set of doors closed, but safety inspectors want to avoid that happening with the new fleet of trains.

		To collect model trains, there are a few things to know: the gauge and the era of train you would like to concentrate on.
		Well, that means that the train runs on track that measures 1.25" between the outside rails, and that the train is approximately 1/48th of the size of the real world train it represents, or 1:48 scale.
		Early train manufacturers used O gauge track, but their trains were not really true scale models, so the designation for these types of trains combined the terms O scale and gauge to indicate that it was a smaller, non-scale O train that ran on the smaller O-27 gauge track.
