The paper ‘GEARLESS DRIVE’ being compact and portable equipment which transmits power at right angle without any gears. Here, the L - shaped joint transmits the input power in such a way that the angular forces are produced and transmitted by the joints. The amount of friction generated is minimal compared to the power being transmitted. The material used for El-bow is made up mild steel material. The mechanism is screwed to the spindle which is driven by the gearless drive transmission connected to the drive system. The entire setup is constructed and placed on the base plate. There is no back lash during the power transmission. Therefore, the efficiency of 90% - 93% can be obtained in a gearless transmission mechanism. The Mechanical drives systems are economic when compared to electrical drives and their control and components are much simpler. These are widely used in industries ranging from aviation to heavy industry. In recent trends and advancements these types of drive has become more efficient

<div class=""abs_img""> <img src=""[disp_template_path]/JRM/abst-image/00270003/07.jpg"" width=""340"" />The manipulator when air flowed in</div> The new super multi-joint manipulator mechanism we introduce in this paper is constructed from a long flexible resinous plate in the center of the manipulator and a pneumatic actuator the same length as the arm arranged antagonistically. The number of power transmission mechanism is fewer than that of joints. Specialized in a winding grip, the mechanism is light and simple. From the effect of this property, the manipulator could be easily extended in the length. The experimental mechanism mode was developed and several experiments were conducted, such as driving on the vertical plane, grasping some objects and moving with flow rate adjustment. As a result, the manipulator could drive on the vertical plane, winds cylinders of 50–200 mm in diameter and controls winding behavior.

Basic Power

Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) utilizes the thermal gradient available in the ocean to operate a heat engine to produce work output. Even though the concept is simple and old for almost one century, recently it has gained momentum due to worldwide search for clean continuous energy sources to replace the fossil fuels. There are technological hurdles to overcome to tap the immense potential of OTEC. But still the technology is mature enough to establish commercial power plants. National Institute of Ocean Technology was involved in the design, development and demonstration of a 1 MW OTEC floating plant-the largest of its kind-in the Indian waters. This is to be commissioned 60 km south east of Tuticorin, South India where an ocean depth of 1200m available. The site surveys, computer analysis, model studies were done in 1999. The basic power cycle design Was completed within 4 months. The plant was integrated and stage qualification tests were carried out in 2000-02. The project is to be commissioned in January 2003. This paper is projecting the technological and economical aspects of the OTEC with an overview of the various pre-commissioning activities of the project.
