Multiple gears can be connected together with one or more [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_ratio#Idler_gears '''Idler Gears'''].

If there are an odd number of gears, the output rotation will be the same direction as the input. If there are an even number, the output will rotate in the opposite direction to the input.

Neither the number of idler gears nor the number of teeth on each idler gear affect the overall '''[[Velocity Ratio]]''' or '''[[Mechanical Advantage]]''' which are both governed purely by the number of teeth on the first '''driver''' gear and last '''driven''' gear.
