Gear teeth cannot be continuously variable, which is why cone drives use belts or wheels, not gears. Gear teeth on a cone that change with the diameter really isn't continuous, it's a bunch of gears stacked together. Good job, sparky. | |

There are volumetric weird gears like the triple-gear google.com/search?q=triple+gear however that is parallel too. I think that I have to question the mathematics forum. bugman123.com/Gears | |
