In an inverted cone clutch, the female portion is a lip added to the perimeter of the flywheel. It's indirect because, rather than the clutch pedal acting directly on the gear shaft to disengage, the motion has to be reversed through a simple sliding pivot. 1, record 1, English, - inverted%20cone%20clutch

The Cup Counter Anemometer gives direct indication of run of wind on a mechanical counter.... Munro Cup Counter Anemometer... is used at many agrometeorological stations in hot climates to indicate the run of wind at 2 m above ground level and for estimating potential evapotranspiration. The three conical cups rotate the spindle at a speed proportional to linear wind speed and the motion is transmitted, via a worm gear, to a six-digit mechanical counter which indicates in mph, knots or km/h. Average run of wind over any chosen period of time can be calculated by noting counter readings at the beginning and end of the cycle. 1, record 7, English, - cup%20counter%20anemometer

Ils sont installés à 10 mètres au-dessus du sol, à un endroit dégagé de tout obstacle (bâtiment, arbre,...). Les plus fréquemment utilisés sont les anémomètres totalisateurs, constitués de trois ou quatre branches terminées respectivement par une coupelle hémisphérique.

Most pitch-changing mechanisms are operated by oil pressure(hydraulically) and use some type of piston-and-cylinder arrangement. The piston may move in the cylinder, or the cylinder may move over a stationary piston. The linear motion of the piston is converted by several different types of mechanical linkage into the rotary motion necessary to change the blade angle. The mechanical connection may be through gears, the pitch-changing mechanism turning a drive gear or power gear that meshes with a gear attached to the butt of each blade. 3, record 13, English, - pitch%2Dchange%20mechanism

Les mécanismes de changement de calage [des hélices à vitesse constante] sont soit électriques, soit hydrauliques, mais dans tous les cas on trouve: - un élément sensible détectant le nombre de tours, - un élément de réglage relié à la commande, - un élément actif qui, compte tenu des deux éléments précédents, commande le changement de calage. Ces trois éléments forment le régulateur [d'hélice] - un moteur électrique ou hydraulique qui fait tourner les pales autour de leur axe longitudinal. 1, record 13, French, - m%C3%A9canisme%20de%20changement%20de%20pas

«Driver» ayant le sens de «directeur, conducteur» et «roller» celui de «rouleau, cylindre», on peut supposer que «roller driver» désigne l'une des dents qui actionnent le «driving roller» ou «rouleau d'entraînement» d'un indicateur de vitesse. Certains préfèrent confondre le cylindre et ses dents et désigner la pièce par «galet d'entraînement» ou simplement «galet». 1, record 14, French, - galet%20d%27entra%C3%AEnement
