Abstract

See full text

A gear meshing system is disclosed. The gear meshing system includes a pair of gears engaged with each other through a first plurality and a second plurality of teeth thereon. Each gear has a mark which is oriented in a predetermined relationship with a timing slot on the gear. Each gear of the pair of gears is identical to the other. Accordingly, by utilizing a marking scheme in accordance with the present invention the same gear part can be used with multiple shafts and thereby assure accurate meshing/timing upon assembly. Accordingly, the need for additional part numbers will be minimized and excessive part proliferation will be avoided.
