lantern pinion
A lantern pinion is a type of gear used in clock mechanisms and other machinery. It consists of cylindrical rods, usually metal, positioned vertically between two round plates or discs. The rods act as teeth and mesh with the teeth of another gear or wheel. Lantern pinions are often used in low-speed, high-torque applications because they are less likely to bind or jam than other gear types. The name comes from its resemblance to old lanterns used in medieval times.
