But the pot is mounted rigidly to the same shaft as the pinion.In that case, there is no reduction. The pinions are simply acting as rollers. So, by definition, it would have to rotate at the same angular velocity??

Sorry I didn't realize I could only upload one at a time. Here's the second.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=1f1859bf-be08-458d-9275-92847f0e3c0b&file=Dump_Mech1.png

These are two screen captures of my model. Please note that the second top-mounted rack would be fixed to a frame. I put it there for concept visualization. http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=505e283a-b3a9-467b-ad08-b0d088a51401&file=dump_mech2.png

Can I attach an image here?

In this configuration, you would need two pintions, since the motor has to translate with the slag pot as it rotates and translates.

I'm currently studing options to retrofit a drive train for a tipping mechanism on a slag haulage car. The slag pot tipping mechanism consists of a parallel gear train driving a worm that rotates a pinion on a rack, which is fixed to the slag pot. So, the slag pot rolls on a rack and pinion to...
