  Re: What's the difference?
 
(...) Yes, and keep in mind that the advantage with an 18speed transmission that I described in my last post,is that you could go through your low gears without splitting them, flick into high range and split whichever gears you want...gives you (...) (18 years ago, 23-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: How to use this part to flip something?
 
(...) I realized in this picture, you can see a little more of the part in the lower left of this image. (URL) Since the part is at the core of the joint, it is hard to see it. You can see where the joint pivots, that is where the pivot point of the (...) (18 years ago, 23-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

  How to use this part to flip something?
 
(URL) been looking at this part, Technic, Arm 2 x 5 with 1/4 Gear 8 Tooth Double Bevel, and I figure it should be simple enough to use it to flip something to one side, but I'd like to know if anyone has tried doing this in a Technic creation of (...) (18 years ago, 23-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)

  Re: What's the difference?
 
(...) Yeah I suppose it would be, because you would have two different sets of gears that could both be changed. So in that way they'd be the same. The trick is to not duplicate ratio's because that's a waste. (18 years ago, 22-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: What's the difference?
 
(...) Is it something like the front and rear sprockets of a 10+ speed bike? I know there are frequently duplications of gear ratios there. (18 years ago, 22-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: What's the difference?
 
(...) That makes a lot of sense. The configurations I was coming up with in my head, tended to duplicate ratio's I already had. Steve (18 years ago, 21-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: What's the difference?
 
(...) I don't know any details about splitters, but if the difference in ratio of the 2 gears in the splitter is smaller than the difference between any of the standard gears, then it would create ratios between the standard gears as per Glen's (...) (18 years ago, 21-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: What's the difference?
 
(...) I've read all the replies and they seem to contradict each other, so I think I'll further define my question. If the splitter is an add on in front of the gear box how does it's internal mechanism give a ratio half way in between the gears. (18 years ago, 21-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)

  Re: What's the difference?

  Re: What's the difference?
 
"Maico Arts" <lego@t-hok.nl> wrote in message news:JADAwy.296@lugnet.com... (...) This "splitter" may well occur in the differential. When the lever on the shifter is changed the differential shifts gears giving a lower or higher ratio to the (...) (18 years ago, 18-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: What's the difference?
 
Hello Steve, I would explain it like this: A gearbox with 4 gears forward plus 1 reverse with range change will give 4 lower gears and 4 upper gears, thus giving 8 gears forward. The splitter makes it possible to split these 8 gears when the truck (...) (18 years ago, 16-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)
 
  What's the difference?
 
Between a splitter and a range change on a truck gearbox? I know what the difference is functionally, what I want to know is the mechanical difference. I've tried Google without much luck. Thanks. Steve (18 years ago, 15-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)

  Re: Amazing new part!
