Disclosed is a multi-gear torquer with end covers on both sides of the casing. An input shaft and an output shaft are respectively arranged at the center of the two end covers. A sun gear is fixed on the input shaft and moves along a planet gear engaged in the transmission mechanism. The planet gear meshes with a gear ring and moves around the sun gear, then the planet gear drives the turntable centrally fixed with the output shaft connected to the load end. The multi-gear torquer disclosed herein has the following advantages: large output torque and high mechanical efficiency, and it can be used as power transmission equipment for a car or a train and used as other mechanical transmission equipment.

A first planetary gear set includes a first sun gear to which power is input from a hydraulic motor. The first planetary gear set includes a first carrier and a first ring gear. The first carrier and the first ring gear are able to rotate in conjunction with rotation of the first sun gear. A second planetary gear set includes a second sun gear configured so as to rotate integrally with the first carrier. A hydraulic clutch mechanism allows or prohibits the rotation of the first ring gear.

A river turbine for harnessing a predetermined minimum or baseload value of hydrokinetic energy from river current received at a harnessing module has three modules: the harnessing module, a controlling module and a generating module. Han's principle is that, in a torque balanced speed converter Hummingbird system, the generated electric power (output) from a harnessed input power (input) must exceed the electric power used for the control motor (control). Harnessed power is provided to the power balanced three variable mechanical control system when a control power line graph is crossed by an output power line graph to achieve an electrical advantage. The three variable mechanical motion control system includes a Hummingbird control assembly of first and second spur/helical gear, first and second ring gear and first and second bevel/miter gear Transgear gear assemblies.
