Abstract

An example machine-gear system that connects to a prime mover in which the prime mover may operate at a first rotational speed and the machine may operate at a different rotational speed. The gear system, of the machine-gear system, may be configured to connect the prime mover and the machine such that the prime mover operates at the first rotational speed and the machine may operate at the different speed. The gear system may be located within the housing of the machine, which may result in a more compact machine-gear system, than for other arrangements. In some examples, the gear system may include two or more stages. In some examples, the multiple stage gear systems may be configured to engage or disengage from one, or more, stages, which may result in a machine-gear system that operates at two or more different rotational speeds as the operational modes change.
