Do the gears of a bicycle mesh together?

Don't really know what you're tinking of with "mesh together"... On a bike with external gears the gears will not mesh. There's the chain acting as a go-between to transfer the energy. On an internally geared bike you will have cogwheels that are interlocking and driving each other.


What conditions mus hold true if two gears are to mesh properly?

Tooth size, style and pitch must be the same. And if the gears are helical they must have the same twist, in opposite directions.

What is difference between synchromesh and sliding mesh gearbox?

Sliding mesh - This is where the gears are not in constant mesh with each other and the gears on the main shaft slide over to mesh with the gears on the lay shaft/counter shaft. Synchromesh - the problem with constant mesh is that the gears crash into each other when changing gear because there travelling at different rpms (one at engine speed and the other a lot slower) They dont line up properly when spinning and when they go to mesh they end up grinding. So the awnser is Synchromesh which uses Baulk rings to lock onto the gear first before the sliding sleeve comes over to lock on. Difficult to explain how it works but basically its a smooth gear change.


What is a machine wheel called?

A machine wheel is typically called a "gear." Gears are toothed wheels that mesh with each other to transmit power and motion between different parts of a machine.


What is the difference between syncromesh and constant mesh gearboxes?

In a synchromesh gearbox, synchronizers are used to match the speed of gears before engaging, resulting in smoother and quieter gear shifts. Constant mesh gearboxes have gears that are always in mesh, with dog clutches used to engage gears for selection, which can be quicker but may be noisier.
