The main aim of this review paper is to give detail study about the gearless power transmission mechanism at right angle (900) with the help of L-shape rod (EL-BO ROD) of uniform diameter, Dimension (Identical rod). The mechanism is very important defining application in replacement of gear. It is mainly based on the theoretical, analytical and Finite Element Method (or FEA). Figuring of various parameters such as number of pins, material, dimension difference of component, speed and torque. Gearless power transmission for skew shafts minimize the losses, costs and save the time and space. This system countenance the changing in the orientation of shaft during motion which is very interesting and bewitching about this mechanism. Odd pins or links like 3, 5, 7, 9…must be used in this system and each links are fixed in the drilled hole at both ends of the shafts due to which motion is transferred. Functionally the system is very smooth and work effectively with a very minimum amount of power losses. Keywords: Driving Shaft, Driven Shaft, Bearing, Elbow Rod, Supporting Frame and mechanism
