Magnetic gear

Patent Pending The magnetic gear resembles in part, the traditional mechanical gear. All cogs of each gear component of magnetic gears act as a magnet with periodic alternation of opposite magnetic poles on mating surfaces. Gear components are mounted with a "cushioned" backlash capability similar to other mechanical gearings with no cushioning effect. Although they can exert as much force as a traditional gear, such gears work without touching and so are immune to wear of mating surfaces, have very low noise and can slip without damage making them very reliable.
