23. The spur gears of the external or auxiliary gearbox gear train (fig. 7-4 and 7-5) are mounted
between bearings supported by the front and rear casings which are bolted together. They transmit the

drive to each accessory unit, which is normally between 5000 and 6000 r.p.m. for the accessory
units and approximately 20,000 r.p.m. for the centrifugal breather.

24. All gear meshes are designed with 'hunting tooth' ratios which ensure that each tooth of a gear
does not engage between the same set of opposing teeth on each revolution. This spreads any wear
evenly across all teeth.

Late in 1943 the decision was taken at Rolls- Royce to build a turbo-prop for aircraft speeds of around 400 mph. The resulting engine, known as the RB50 Trent, was basically a Derwent II with a flexible quillshaft to reduction gear and propeller. On 20 September 1945 a Gloster Meteor, fitted with two Trents, became the world’s first turboprop powered aircraft to fly.
