A gear or cogwheel is a rotating machine part having cut teeth, or cogs, which mesh with another toothed part to transmit torque.

Geared devices can change the speed, torque, and direction of a power source.

Gears almost always produce a change in torque, creating a mechanical advantage, through their gear ratio, and thus may be considered a simple machine.

The teeth on the two meshing gears all have the same shape.

Two or more meshing gears, working in a sequence, are called a gear train or a transmission.

A gear can mesh with a linear toothed part, called a rack, thereby producing translation instead of rotation.
