2 In 1 Out Transmission
2 In 1 Out Transmission
(OP)
Hello,
I am trying to design an automated test stand that has 2 counter rotating inputs and 1 output. I was wondering if there exists an off the shelf gearbox that could select between the 2 input shafts to drive the output shaft.

A bit more info is needed.

Is this what you are referring to?
Call Hub City and talk to an application engineer to confirm how you intend to use this.

For more details, I have two counter rotating chain driven sprockets that need to output to this generator. Space is an issue, so the two ideas right now are to somehow isolate each sprocket on the shared output shaft or find this magic gear box to select from 2 shafts and output to the generator.

You may consider a stepped shaft with your two sprockets mounted on overrunning clutches. The inputs could not be counter rotating though.

solution.
I would give Superior Gearbox a call with your requirements.
